Bitmoji

Bitmoji is Snap Inc.'s popular free cartoon-avatar app for expressing yourself anywhere. You design a cartoon avatar that looks like you, choosing hair, clothes, and features, and then use it across chats and apps. Linking Bitmoji to Snapchat unlocks Friendmoji stickers with friends, 3D Bitmoji World Lenses, and custom geofilters for your location. It also works outside Snapchat through the iMessage app, Gboard on Android, and a Chrome desktop extension. There are no paid tiers; the service is completely free.
