Apple is in love with stickers in its latest ad for the iPhone 7 that touts the popularity of the new iMessage feature.

The wacky minute-long ad called “Sticker Fight” follows a group of teenagers as they attack older folks with a barrage of animated stickers in the real-world. Eventually an all-out war breaks out in a restaurant as diners pelt each other with colorful cartoons and other images.

Support for stickers was added to iPhones and iPads with the iOS 10 update last year. You don’t have to own an iPhone 7 to send them either as long as your running iOS 10.
