Users will be able to see the avatar in their settings menu.



WhatsApp also created a sticker pack with the avatar in different poses, so that users can use it to express themselves in different situations.


Currently, the avatar feature is available to some WhatsApp users, but it is not clear at the present time when WhatsApp will launch the feature for all users on the Android and IOS operating systems.
