Starting with Selfie Stickers, as the name suggests, users can now turn their selfies into a sticker. Whenever you capture a photo/video, you will see a smiley face. Just tap on that smiley face and you will see a new sticker along with a camera icon that will let you take a mini-selfie. You can also apply different frame styles like fade or circle. Moreover, you can also pin this selfie sticker to a specific spot in your video. To pin a sticker to the video, just tap and hold it and then move it over any object. Once you have moved it over an object, just tap on Pin to confirm.instagram-geo-stickers
