How to Create Your Avatar 

  • Open WhatsApp Settings and head over to the avatar. 
  • After that, click on Create your avatar, and you will be given the option to customise. 
  • When you have finished creating your avatar, follow the steps. 
  • Click on Done; that’s it!

How do I use an avatar sticker? 

WhatsApp offers you the ability to customise your avatar by sending stickers. So you can send an avatar sticker to anyone. 

  • Open Settings, and then click on the Emoji icon on the right side of the chat box. 
  • At the bottom, you have an avatar sticker on the left side. 
  • From there, you have various stickers; from the top navigation on the avatar sticker, you can browse according to mood.

  • That’s it 

WhatsApp will create a sticker pack, which you can use in WhatsApp chats. It is also possible to change the avatar profile picture by following the same steps, but instead of selecting the avatar, select either the gallery or the camera. And apply it as a profile picture.
