Facebook Avatar Creator App
The Facebook avatar creator app is none other than the official Facebook app. Yea I just said that, and it’s actually true. The avatar feature is ingrained into the official Facebook app, to enable users to access this feature from their Facebook page, which they are currently using and are already used to. You can download the current version of the app from the Google Play Store or from the App Store, depending on your device requirements.
This means that, you don’t have to leave your page in order to create an avatar character, but rather you can create your avatar, and go about doing your other normal Facebook business right from the same page. Wow that means it’s very convenient for you right?.
What is Facebook Avatar?
Facebook avatars are cartoon-like characters rolled out recently by Facebook, in a bid to help it’s users better personalize their Facebook interactions with their family and friends on the Facebook page. Now, this feature is structured in such a way that you can make it look like you, by giving it the same facial features as yours.
The modalities that have been put in place to help you create an avatar that looks just like you are. They are hairstyles, face shape, face lines, eye shape, color, and lash length, eyebrow shape, body shape, nose, and mouth shape, to give it your lookalike shape.
After creating your avatar, Facebook also takes it a step further by giving you access to using it for your comments, on Messenger, as your profile picture, etc.
Also you have the option of editing your avatar anytime you feel like changing a look, to keep you from having the same stereotyped look every time you are using the feature.
