More about the new feature
The new features comes as an “essential representation” for users who want to express their personalities in a more creative way, CEO of Bitmoji Ba Blackstock reveals.
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, he said:
“It’s not just about having an avatar where you have a picture of yourself — that’s pretty easy. It’s more about what can you do with that avatar? What part does it play in your digital life? Not everyone is comfortable putting photos or videos of themselves online. Bitmoji, in a way, I’ve always thought of it as kind of digital id. It really is this essential representation of not just what you look like, but your personality.”
David Whyte, Snapchat’s 3D Bitmoji product designer, added: “The 3D avatars in profiles are meant to make Snapchat profiles more expressive, fun and personal.”
