These are the only must-have sticker packs:

I might just go through and give 1 star reviews to every app with sticker support.

It's completely understandable to react this way, when presented with such a biblically offensive situation. Stickers are the last straw.

I couldn't conceive of a more mature or appropriate way to spend your free time. Thank you for taking this stand!
 
My only question is: How do I disable these insanely annoying things? That should have been the first thing that Apple built into the new Messages -- an option to disable incoming stickers.

Don't worry the teens who want to send you these stickers are struggling because their phones are bricked.
 
Amazing how people on tech blogs seem to be the most disconnected from the way people communicate in 2016.

Let's go back to IRC chatrooms, should we?

Let's show Mama Italia some love and send her a big heart with a smile of Tim Cook. :)
 
I like the idea of the stickers. I find the emojis, bitmojis and stickers enjoyable/fun but you gotta remember your audience. Am I going to send out a text to an employee full of stickers? No. Am I to my sister, friends or SO? Yes because we've always used emojis and think it's fun way to communicate.

Don't like them don't use them.

Sorry for being "that guy" who has to be reasonable, but if you don't want this feature, don't use it. I probably won't that much, but it really doesn't bother me it being there.

Maybe communicate with your friends who send you them that you'd rather your conversations were a stickers-free environment? Bonus points if you tell them that entirely through the medium of stickers.
 
I know my GM build had some old Apple stickers but does anyone know if the iMessage Store regulations allow people to design Apple sticker packs featuring Apple hardware designs and marks, even if they're reworked or somewhat stylized for the app itself?

It's funny—I never put two and two together to realize that hey, I'm a designer, I could finally make money on iOS without having to learn Swift/Objective C! I'm not a smart man, lol. Has anyone seen some good resources on how to get started making these packs? Does it involve any programming at all? I have a developer account because I do the testing of the app designs that my team builds, so I could start selling them pretty easily if I wanted to.

NO, they aren't the last straw, but when Apple finally gets rid of the annoying apps everyone always wanted to disable they then add something 10x annoying to many who are trying to still talk like real people in a "#txt" world.
[doublepost=1473804588][/doublepost]Is there a way to disable stickers and more specifically the app store button in messages? I looked in restrictions and couldn't find anything, as well as the messages settings, and still nothing. I have zero use for that button and want it gone.

Cheer up, Wem; as you've picked the right friends for you, they wouldn't be sending you all these things anyway. So no harm done!
 
There is no sticker pack worth getting. There's a built in keyboard that works just fine to convey emotion and thoughts.

The first thing I did in iMessage was remove all apps and confirm emoji keyboard was still disabled.
