I love that Apple is giving users more and more control over iMessage. With iOS 13, the company not only launched super useful text editing gestures but also allows users to share their image and name when sending messages to someone. And now with iOS 13.3, there’s a method to disable Memoji stickers. All these choices allow iPhone users to control iMessage just the way they want to and that is just great.

So, that’s the how you can keep the Memoji stickers away from your emoji keyboard. Memoji stickers are the sort of feature that bring joy to those who are into messaging and like using cool stickers.
