WhatsApp Channels, the new feature that lets you follow updates from your favourite celebs, teams, and organisations, has crossed the 500 million monthly active users milestone in seven weeks, Mark Zuckerberg has announced.

In light of this, Channels is gaining a new feature today: Stickers. You can use them to spice up your channel messages just like you do in your private chats, making your channel more interactive and engaging for your followers.

Some of the popular channels that are using stickers include International Cricket Council, Mumbai Indians, Indian Cricket Team, Diljit Dosanjh, Katrina Kaif, Allu Arjun, Vijay Deverakonda, Chef Ranveer Brar, TechBurner and more.

WhatsApp Channels is a new way to get updates from people, organisations, and teams you follow on WhatsApp. Channels are separate from your private chats, and who you choose to follow is not visible to other followers. You can join any channel by scanning a QR code or tapping on a link, and you can also create your own channel and invite others to follow you.
