Snapchat and Bitmoji: A Complete Guide to Linking and Styling Your Avatar

Bitmoji and Snapchat have grow synonymous with personalized digital expression. This guide provides a comprehensive overview of how to link your Bitmoji avatar to Snapchat, style it using the latest AI-powered features, and understand the different ways to customize your digital self within the platform.

Linking Your Bitmoji to Snapchat

If you initially installed Snapchat through the Bitmoji app, you likely encountered prompts during registration to connect your existing avatar. You would have been given the option to “Link existing avatar.” If you skipped this step, you can easily connect your accounts through the Snapchat Camera. Snapchat will provide instructions to complete the connection process.

Styling Your Bitmoji with Snap the Look (Lens+)

Snapchat+ subscribers can now leverage the power of artificial intelligence to style their Bitmoji based on a photo using the “Snap the Look” Lens. This feature allows you to generate an AI-powered image of your Bitmoji wearing outfits inspired by your photos directly within your Snaps.

How to Leverage Snap the Look

1. Open the Snapchat Camera.
2. Locate ‘Snap the Look’ within the Lens carousel.
3. Tap the middle of the screen or the ‘Snap the Look’ prompt.
4. Allow the Snap to generate. You will then be taken to the Preview screen.
5. Edit, save, and send your Snap as usual.

It’s important to note that while “Snap the Look” generates an image within your Snap, it doesn’t permanently change the outfits saved in your Bitmoji Closet.

Updating Your Bitmoji’s Wardrobe

To update your Bitmoji’s saved outfits, you’ll demand to use the Avatar Designer within either Snapchat or the dedicated Bitmoji app. This allows for more permanent customization of your avatar’s appearance.

Exploring 3D Bitmoji

Snapchat too offers 3D Bitmoji, adding another layer of personalization to your profile. Here’s how to access and use them:

• Link Your Accounts: Ensure your Bitmoji is linked to your Snapchat account.
• Access the Camera: Open the rear-facing Camera on Snapchat.
• Find the Lens: Tap on a surface to activate Lenses and swipe through the options to find your 3D Bitmoji.
• Customize: You can pinch to resize your 3D Bitmoji and press and hold to move it around within the scene.

Creating a Bitmoji with a Selfie

You can also create a Bitmoji from scratch using a selfie. The process involves allowing Bitmoji access to your camera to generate an avatar based on your facial features.
