Gone are the days when consumers used emojis, gifs, and stickers to express emotions. People are leaning towards Apple’s Memoji and Snapchat Bitmoji in chats and chats. You can create versions of such avatars using tons of customization options, clothing styles, hairstyles, etc. Facebook is also coming on board with the launch of Avatar. And the good news is that you can easily use a Facebook Avatar in WhatsApp chats and even set it as your display photo on WhatsApp.
Facebook’s Avatars is a bigger deal than its rivals. First, it directly reaches over a billion users and second, the company has not left any hindrance when it comes to customization options. In my experience, the customization options are even better than what Apple and Snapchat offer users.
After creating the Facebook Avatar from scratch, the company provides a list of ready-to-use avatars with different expressions and styles. Understandably, there’s no direct way to save them to your phone’s gallery. But Facebook offers a neat way to share them using other social networks like Instagram, Snapchat, WhatsApp, Messenger, etc.
