I remember it was years ago that one of my students told me about emojis. I think I had asked him how he got those cute little smiley faces and such on his phone and he helped me download it on to my own. Well, in the years since then, emojis have become commonplace and I don't think I know anyone who doesn't use them. In the past couple of months, however, thanks to my sister-in-law, I've discovered a whole new generation of emojis, and I am loving it!
Bitmoji is a free app in the iTunes store that combines the best of emoji and you. The App Store's description says it's the "your avatar emoji," and that's exactly what it is. After downloading the app, you create your avatar, a cartoonish likeness of yourself. The process is relatively easy and it takes you through detailed information about your appearance. Once you're done creating your likeness, the app then adds a sub-set to your keyboard and voila! You can start using your Bitmoji.
Bitmojis come in a wide variety of images (I currently have 105 on my phone) and it's always possible to find one that'll fit any conversational situation. With popular phrases built into images with themes like movies and television shows, the Olympics and more that are constantly changing, this app is tons of fun. So if you're an emoji type of person, you should definitely check out Bitmoji. It's a great way to personalize yourself in a fun way while talking to your friends. So click the link below and try it out. You won't regret it!
