Apple’s Memoji brings an animated you to your iPhone

Apple showcased a big update to Animojis today, adding a human look called Memoji alongside tongue detection on the silly iPhone X animals.

The company’s Animoji feature was one of the big highlights of the iPhone X reveal in September. The goofy cartoon pigs and chickens utilized the phone’s new front-facing camera array to track a user’s face and deliver recorded messages in a fun way.

Since the initial launch, the company has added a few more characters to the animated repertoire, today is the first big change in how they look and operate.

The company announced it was adding ghost, koala, tiger and t-rex Animojis, but more interestingly the company added Memoji, a custom Animoji tool which allows users to build their own.

It’s set up a lot like Bitmoji but takes the magic of Animoji live face-tracking to deliver some very fun and diverse experiences that can live in messages or can be directly transposed on your face through the camera app.
