WhatsApp has introduced the feature of adding avatars to profile photos with the 2.25.18.14 beta update it released for Android users. Avatars, which could previously only be used instead of the profile photo, can now be displayed next to the profile photo. This new feature has been highly appreciated by its users.

WhatsApp has introduced the long-awaited avatar update

This new feature is currently available to a limited number of beta testers. According to initial user experiences, avatars are activated via a new option in the WhatsApp settings. With this feature, users can personalize their avatars and display both their real photos and digital versions together.

The process of creating an avatar is quite simple. Users first choose a background color for their avatars. This color is used to personalize the avatar’s appearance and reflect its mood. Then, users choose one of the animation options that will add a dynamic atmosphere to their avatars.

Another striking aspect of the avatar feature is the way it is displayed on the chat screen. People viewing the user’s profile are greeted with a coin-flipping animation. This animation shows the user’s traditional profile photo on one side and their customized avatar on the other. In this way, a graceful transition is provided between the two visual elements and the profile becomes more interactive.
