We are in one of the most special times of the year. Many of you will be celebrating with your families and friends, and others will have won the lottery to confine yourself for a few days due (again) to the pandemic. And why not say it, many of you will have new gifts under your tree, and who knows if one of those gifts hides that new iPhone that you wanted so much. Many of you will be making the leap from a device without Face ID to one with Face ID, it is easy to take the leap, and it is time to discover the Memoji, if you have not already done so ... Memoji they are custom emojis that entered our iPhone thanks to Face ID although today it is compatible with previous models. Do you want to know how to create your own Memoji? Keep reading that we tell you how to customize your own to surprise all your friends.
Messages App, the control center for Memojis
The Memojis are Apple's bet for the much demanded stickersIt is the way to have your personalized sticker, and it has turned out so well for Apple that they have been the objective to be copied from its main competitors, and I say it remembering the advertisement that these days we are seeing on television from Samsung who has also launched their own "Memojis." As I was saying, they came from the hand of Face ID, but iOS 14 allowed older devices (other than the Apple Watch) to be able to create them.
Our first step will be go to the Messages app which is where we can create them. In the application bar, or message add-ons we will see the icons that appear indicated in the image aboveIn either of the two buttons we will have access to the gallery of memojis and there we can create them (the icon on the left only appears on devices with Face ID).
The time for creativity has arrived
We will start by choosing our skin color. All the emojis start from the same face style, and like the face emojis we will start from a "Simpson" type face with yellow skin. Then you can choose the skin tone thanks to a large color palette as you can see on these lines.
With the skin we can also define if we have freckles, type of cheeks we have (color), or even if we have a characteristic mole on our face. Additions that will make our Memoji resemble our face at the highest level of detail.
And after this is time to choose our hairstyle among a great variety of them. At the time of the hairdresser, and we already tell you that the level of detail is amazing since we can even give ourselves highlights in our hair. Enjoy choosing curly, shaved hair, even in blue; And yes, give yourself those highlights that you dreamed of having so much! By the way You can define them in three different styles: Modern, Gradient, or Classic.
Continuing with the hair of our face, you can choose how they are yours Eyebrows (yes you can also dye them the color you want), you can wear a mark on your forehead, or even eyebrow piercings. In the eyes section you can change the shape of the eyes (and their eyelashes), and make up with eyeliner and eye shadow.
Continuing with this of the eyes, you also have a section called Glasses, and obviously what it allows us is to wear glasses on our face. There is a multitude of them customizable with the color we want. Have you suffered an eye accident? don't worry, you can also wear a eye patch in the purest pirate style.
Arriving at the section of Head, It's time to define how old we are, and it is that in the end the size and shape of our head defines how old we are. Age is marked by mcoffers that we have on our face such as wrinkles, and the shape obviously defines the type of shape of our skull.
Our nose also completely variable, from its size to the accessories that we carry in it. Various types of piercings or even an oxygen tube which means that anyone can be represented in these Memojis without exclusions. And obviously you have to avoid any taboo regarding the needs that we have in our lives, that is why Apple has also wanted to add this oxygen tube to the customization of the Memoji.
We come to the section of Mouth and Ears. No mouth is the same, and lips are probably the shape that most defines our face. Choose from a multitude of lips (yes also their color), the teeth which can have a perfect, diabolical shape with large fangs, or stylized losing a tooth, gaps between them, or we can even join the fashion of braces. And yes the mouth and tongue piercings are also accepted ...
By the way, so that no one forgets the pandemic moment in which we are involved, and especially if you have fallen into the clutches of the Omnicron, you can also wear a mask on your face and customize it with the color you want (without having to pay the extra cost for colored masks). You can use them in your surgical version or in the FFP2 version, the more protected we are, the better ...
As for the obars, we can change your size (without passing us), add several pending earrings (which can be the same in both ears or different), and yes we can also add headphones. And curiously the AirPods first generation are included with cochlear implants. Curiously, the AirPods are the only headphones that we cannot change the color of, obviously the original ones with white so why are we going to change their color ...
Fashion hipster It is also a fashion in the Memoji world. Dare with one of the multiple beards in the catalog. Whether or not you have a beard, this may be the time to try that style that you always wanted to have but never dared with. Beards, mustaches, half beards, or even the typical three-day beard. Yes, you can also dye your beard the color you want.
Your Memoji also in Christmas version
We come to the textile part ... And it is that apart from the physical style that we have, what we wear is also important. Starting with the head, we have the possibility to use a multitude of caps and hatsThere are even professions such as firefighters to suit our work, if that's the case. And obviously for celebrate Christmas, who does not want to wear the classic Santa hat?
And finally, a novelty of iOS 14: the possibility of dress up our Memoji. And it came thanks to the incorporation of new stickers that showed part of our body as you can see in the image that heads this post. You can decide on a large wardrobe of superior clothes that will make your Memoji incorporate your favorite outfits.
Time to use your Memoji
Ok, I already have my personalized Memoji, it even looks like me! But, What do I do now with this? Very easy, once you have configured your Memoji, and saved, you just have to go to any messaging app (It does not have to be the message app) and use it like any other sticker.
To find it, we just have to enter the iPhone emoji keyboard and if we slide all the memojis to the right to show the recently used ones, we will see the iPhone Memojis Gallery, in which in addition to ours you will also find the classic iPhone Memojis (the dinosaur, octopus, cow, poop ...), by clicking on any of the ones you have created You will automatically send it in your conversation as if it were a sticker. And yes, obviously from the Facetime app now you can use your Memoji (on devices with Face ID) to cheer up your face while you are on a video call with your friends.
We hope this new tutorial has been useful for you. Surprise all your friends with your creations and Share us the funniest through our new Discord channel!
