TikTok Rolls Out New Feature TikTok Avatars to Help its Users Display their Individuality

TikTok has launched a new feature TikTok Avatars to enable members of its community to continue with creative expression and to help them showcase their individuality on the platform.

Users can now choose from an array of hairstyles, accessories, piercings and makeup, to create a TikTok Avatar that reflects their personal looks and styles.

To get started, open the effects section in the TikTok app and search for the Avatar effect. From there, you’ll be able to customize your Avatar to fit your preferences. After your Avatar is ready, you can start recording videos. As you gesture and move, your Avatar will mimic your motion.

TikTok while commenting on the new feature said, “We’re excited to launch the first version of TikTok Avatars globally and will continue to improve and innovate to make sure the experience is truly representative of all who are on TikTok. From outfits to skin tones and hair color down to texture, building inclusive features and experiences remains our priority, and we’ll continue to listen to our community and look to creators for feedback at every step of its development. Alongside user feedback, we’re working with our Creator Diversity Collective to make this the most inclusive and representative experience for our community.

“We’re excited to see how people use Avatars to express their creativity and continue exploring ways to bring Avatars into more TikTok experiences, building spaces across TikTok for self-expression and expanding on the ways people connect and create across our global community.”
