Meta's recently released avatar calls make video calling on smartphones a little more relaxed. If you're feeling shy, you can join the conversation in real time with your 3D avatar instead of the camera image. Or in the form of a pet that mimics your facial movements. The application analyzes your image and animates the virtual alter ego's eyes and features accordingly.
The avatar calls support both iOS and Android, in Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram, as well as Horizon Workrooms and Horizon Worlds. Also new are personalized, animated 3D avatars that are available as stickers in text chat. The VR avatars for Meta Quest have also received a facelift. They now match the look of the characters used on the flat screen.
