Once you’ve designed your avatar, here’s what you can do

Creating your WhatsApp avatar is easy, but making it look like you can be a daunting task. When you take a selfie in the avatar editor, the software produces a character based on your most distinguishing features. These features can then be edited further. You can change your facial hair, hairstyle, jawline, skin colour, eyebrows, eye shape, and other visible attributes. We’d suggest spending some time on every facial feature and choosing the option that looks the closest to you.

Once your avatar is ready you can do a bunch of things with it. WhatsApp automatically creates a pack of stickers based on your animated persona. These stickers can be accessed from the emoji section. You can send them to any conversation thread. You can also react to a status update using your avatar. Apart from that, you can set your avatar as your WhatsApp profile picture.
