Facebook is one of the largest social media platforms in the world to keep us connected with our friends, colleagues and kith and kin. Facebook recently introduced several new features to improve and secure our chatting experience, including a shortcuts bar, off-Facebook activity monitoring, dark mode, Messenger Kids, and more.
The Avatar feature is one of them which allows users to create their own cartoon-like avatars to share it with your friends. The cartoon version of yourself gives you a better way to express yourself on Facebook.
The avatar feature also has lots of in-built customisation options such as a variety of hairstyles, faces, colours, complexions, lines, eye shapes, eyebrows, Bindi, eyewear, nose, nose rings, mouth, facial hair, body shape, outfits, headwear, earrings and the like.
Where can we use our own Facebook Avatars?
Facebook’s avatars can be used in comments, stories, profile pictures, news feed and messenger as well. Moreover, users can share these avatars on WhatsApp chats.
