WHATSAPP makes big changes to video calls with custom avatars.
You will be able to create your own cartoon – just like the Memoji on the Apple iPhone.
They will be available as stickers to send in chats.
But that’s not all: you’ll also be able to use them as a face at a time WhatsApp video calls.
A similar feature already exists on iPhone using Apple’s Memodi.
Now the owls are on WABetaInfo found a similar feature for WhatsApp.
It is currently under development, so it is not yet available.
But WABetaInfo has found evidence of this feature.
“There will be a new option on the video call screen that will allow us to immediately switch to our avatar when a future update disappears,” WABetaInfo said.
“We’ll be able to customize our own avatar by running“ Avatar Editor ”: the appropriate section where we can customize the avatar.
“Once this is set up, we will finally be able to send stickers to the avatar.”
Of course, this will not benefit everyone.
You may not want to use an avatar – and you are completely free to avoid it.
What you can’t avoid are other people using avatars on your screen.
So even if you want to see someone’s face during a video call, there’s no way to override the avatar.
