Animoji/Memoji

Animoji/Memoji (n.) Animated emojis or personalized avatars that mimic a user’s facial expressions and head movements. In mobile photography, these are often used in video messages or as fun overlays in photos. Animojis typically use a phone’s front-facing camera and facial recognition technology to map expressions onto cartoon characters, while Memojis are customizable avatars created to resemble the user. This feature adds a playful, personalized element to mobile communication and self-expression.
