How to add stickers, emoji and annotations
You want one arrow pointing at the thing you just shipped. Not a video editor, not a timeline, not a subscription to something else. Just an arrow. Annotations are arrows, circles, boxes and highlights you draw straight on the preview. Stickers and animated emoji live in the same picker, with search, favourites and recents.

Good to know
There is no separate Effects button. Animated sets are chips inside the emoji picker. Animated emoji on a video are baked frame by frame, which makes that export heavier. There is a cap per export so a post with dozens of animated emoji does not stall. Static text and annotations ride the fast render path. Animated emoji and karaoke captions use the slower one.
Can I change the colour of all annotations at once?
Yes. Select them and change the colour in the top-left control. It applies across the selection.
Do stickers work on images too?
Yes. On an image with animated stickers, Forgefy promotes the post to a short video clip so the animation actually plays.
