Social Media Marketing Glossary

Emojis are giving us quite a new realm of interpretability when we’re online, but they’re not exactly real. Fortunately, on the other hand, Bitmoji allows us to customize our characters and create extremely realistic self-portraits and share with our friends and family without losing any of the emoji appeals.

Bitmoji is a supplementary social media software that people use to make little versions of their own drawings, which they then post on their various social media pages. It’s a very simple service: you simply create an avatar of yourself and put together a variety of comics, GIFs, expressions, and reactions that use this avatar.

Over the years, Bitmoji has become popular with people who have become sick of the generic emojis on their apps and want something more unique and interesting. The company provides numerous updates and themes, such as special options for sporting events or holidays, which you can sometimes turn between as you wish.

Although it is currently owned by Snapchat, Bitmoji was originally developed by the Toronto, Canada, company Bitstrips. Bitstrips was founded in 2007 and focused on producing digital comic strips featuring customized avatars, a concept somewhat similar to Bitmoji’s.
