{"package_name":"com.sec.android.mimage.avatarstickers","label":"Avatar Stickers","device_count":35,"observation_count":53,"user_facing_count":1,"first_seen":"2025-06-02T16:53:54Z","last_seen":"2026-09-18T01:54:07Z","guidance":{"summary":"Avatar Stickers, labelled AR Emoji Stickers on some devices and languages, is Samsung's app for turning a user's avatar into animated stickers. In our sample it is signed by the same Samsung key that signs the device framework, so it is an OEM component. Samsung describes AR Emoji Stickers as animated stickers that capture facial expressions and movements, with text, decorations and backgrounds added before sharing. Its guidance for sending them has the user open a messaging app, tap the emoji icon in the keyboard and pick their custom avatar or AR Emoji. It sits alongside the Galaxy Avatar (formerly AR Emoji) packages documented separately on this site.\n\nVersion note: Samsung states that AR Emoji features were renamed Galaxy Avatar from the Galaxy S25 series and devices running Android 15 with One UI 7.0, and its US guidance reaches Galaxy Avatar, including managing an avatar and its stickers, through Settings, Advanced features, Galaxy Avatar. Some of its regional guidance still opens AR Emoji Stickers from the AR Zone app, so expect the entry point to differ by software version and region. The two labels recorded here, AR Emoji Stickers and Avatar Stickers, appear to reflect that rename. Whether the package itself changed role beyond the rename could not be sourced.\n\nFor Android Enterprise, EMM and kiosk use it is a consumer personalisation feature with no part in enrolment or management. It requests camera access, so on a locked-down or dedicated device it is a reasonable candidate to disable, for example with a Knox Manage or EMM policy that blocks a specific system app. Disabling it is expected to remove avatar stickers without affecting core device function, though that could not be confirmed from Samsung's own documentation. Test on one device first, as with any Samsung system app.","safe_to_disable":"caution","sources":[{"title":"How to use AR Emoji Stickers on a Galaxy phone - Samsung Gulf","url":"https://www.samsung.com/ae/support/mobile-devices/how-to-use-ar-emoji-sticker/"},{"title":"Turn yourself into an emoji on your Galaxy phone or tablet - Samsung US Support","url":"https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS10002912/"},{"title":"Create custom stickers on Galaxy phones and tablets - Samsung US Support","url":"https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS10003677/"},{"title":"Enable or disable a specific system app - Knox Manage - Samsung Knox Documentation","url":"https://docs.samsungknox.com/admin/knox-manage/kbas/kba-744-enable-or-disable-specific-system-app/"},{"title":"Package provenance for com.sec.android.mimage.avatarstickers - Android System App Database","url":"https://sysapps.bayton.org/api/packages/com.sec.android.mimage.avatarstickers"}],"last_verified":"2026-09-18T00:00:00Z"},"labels":[{"label":"Avatar Stickers","locale":"en-us","count":17},{"label":"Avatar Stickers","locale":"en","count":16},{"label":"Avatar Stickers","locale":"en-gb","count":11},{"label":"AR Emoji Stickers","locale":"en-gb","count":9},{"label":"Adesivi avatar","locale":"it-IT","count":5},{"label":"Avatar-stickers","locale":"nl-nl","count":4},{"label":"Adesivi avatar","locale":"it-it","count":2},{"label":"Avatar Stickers","locale":"en-nl","count":2},{"label":"Avatar-Sticker","locale":"de-de","count":2},{"label":"Stickers AR Emoji","locale":"es-ES","count":2},{"label":"Stickers AR Emoji","locale":"es-es","count":2},{"label":"AR Emoji Stickers","locale":"en","count":1},{"label":"AR Emoji-stickers","locale":"nl-nl","count":1},{"label":"Autocoll.
