Get Google Playground APK on for your non-Pixel device from the link given below! The evolution of Playground AR sticker was announced during the Pixel 3 event held in the NY City. The playground is now a special mode in Google Pixel camera; a rebrand of AR Stickers on the surface. However, there are some critical differences between AR Sticker and Playground:
- Characters can intersect with each other.
- Based on what’s showing on the screen, a suggestion for the sticker will appear.
- You can now place stickers on the front-facing camera.
- There are also some new sticker packs, like the Marvel sticker pack, but limited to Pixel devices only.
Initially, AR stickers were similar to the virtual animation in Snapchat, but the key difference is that these are entirely in 3D and can be deployed in a much smarter way. Thanks to Google’s artificial intelligence, which can put the sticker in a sharper sense of spatial by recognizing the object.

Following are the sticker packs integrated into the Google Playground:
