TechCrunch reported that Meta initially launched avatars in 2020 to compete with Snap’s Bitmoji and has been continuously updating them since across Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp and Messenger.
The launch comes days after Instagram chief Adam Mosseri said that the platform would focus more on photos in 2023. He admitted that the platform showed too many videos last year.
