New AR stickers are here for your Pixel and Pixel 2! Google told us that new sticker packs were coming and they went live today.
We’ve got Winter Sports and Blocks AR stickers, both of which need an update to the AR Stickers app in order to work on your Pixel phone. That’s annoying, since Google is still slowly rolling out updates in stages and no one ever gets them within the first few days, but I’m sure all you APK bros can figure out where to find the v1.1 update.
The Winter Sports AR stickers arrive just in time for the Winter Olympics. You’ll find new stickers like a winter bear, skier, hockey player, ice skater, snowman and tree. In the Blocks AR stickers pack, you’ll find items including a boombox, microphone, stack of cash, and champagne bottle that you can play spin-the-bottle with.
What are Google AR Stickers? The fun little animated objects that you can place in photos or videos through the Pixel camera app to spice things up some. To use AR Stickers on your Pixel or Pixel 2, open the camera app, swipe on the side menu, and tap the “AR Stickers” option. From there, browse through the different sticker packs, then drag and drop the ones you want to use onto your camera feed. Snap away.

Works great on my Xiaomi Mi Mix and the kids really enjoy interacting with the VR while they take pics
Installed but none of the new stuff shows up in the camera app. Based on Play reviews this is a common problem.
Blocks isn’t really new; they were included in the first version and Google decided to move them into a pack for whatever reason. I noticed they did add a few new things to the Star Wars set though.
Do these really interest people? If so, what are you using these for? I used it for about 10 minutes and never again used it.
It’s just a toy, fun to play with if you’re bored.
