How do you add more sticker packs? #4381

Closed winteriscariot closed 4 years ago

winteriscariot commented 4 years ago

It's not immediately apparent to me how this is done. In a message, I can click the sticker icon, and it brings up a panel with the 2 pre-installed sticker packs, but no UI element or instructions on how to add more:

Considering there was a recent blog post extolling the "over five thousand sticker packs" that have been uploaded, Signal has not made it clear how one is to access these.

Okay so on the blog post I was referring to, I realized that clicking the links took me to a signal.art/addsticker/ website that then launches Signal and installs the packs.

This is not made clear, AT ALL, anywhere in Signal or even on the website. Even when I go to https://signal.art , there's literally no instructions on where to go to find sticker packs -- this website seems to just be a mirror of signal.org

Is there a central hub for this? Going to https://signal.art/addstickers/ takes me to a blank sticker pack that seems to do nothing.

This is an issue. It's a UX issue. There's little to no information within Signal itself on how and where to get sticker packs.
