Apple prepares for WWDC: How to get this exclusive sticker

As WWDC 2025 approaches, Apple has quietly updated its Developer app with a small but surprisingly fun addition for iMessage users. While the app itself hasn’t changed much ahead of the conference, version 10.8 introduces a new batch of stickers that celebrate the event — and they’re already available to download and use in Messages.

New WWDC stickers now available in iMessage

Although the Apple Developer app still features only a brief promo for WWDC 2025, the latest update includes 11 iMessage stickers that are perfect for sharing your excitement about the event. The stickers come in a variety of designs, each themed around Apple’s iconic developer culture and WWDC branding.

To access them, you’ll need to install the latest version of the Apple Developer app, then open the Messages app. Tap the “+” button, select “Stickers,” and scroll until you find the Apple Developer app icon. From there, you’ll be able to add the stickers to your messages instantly.

Why this matters for WWDC fans

For developers and Apple enthusiasts, these stickers offer a small but fun way to participate in the WWDC experience even before the conference begins. It’s also a reminder that, despite being a serious platform for professional tools and updates, Apple still embraces a playful touch in how it connects with its developer community.

While we wait for the full WWDC content — including video sessions, developer labs, and keynote announcements — these stickers are the first signal that the countdown has officially begun.
