How To Create Your Own Instagram Avatar

Creating an Instagram Avatar is easy and takes a few steps, but the only setback is that it is currently available in limited countries. Well, if you are not from one of these countries, worry not; Meta is planning to add many more countries and regions in some upcoming months.

  1. Open your Instagram app and tap on your profile picture in the bottom right corner of the screen.

2. Tap on the menu icon in the screen’s top right corner.

3. Tap on “Settings.”

7. After you have customized your avatar, you will need to tap the “Done” button in the top right corner of the screen and then select “Save Changes”. This will now save and sync your avatar on all 3 Meta platforms.

Your digital Instagram Avatar is now ready to use, and you can use it on any Meta platform you like. You can even choose to use it as your display picture on any of these platforms. So let’s quickly see how you can use Instagram avatars on Instagram.

How to use Instagram Avatar on your Stories

The avatar can be used in many places, like stories and DMs are some of them. So firstly, let’s see how to use them in your stories –

  1. Once you are on the stories creation page, swipe up or click the Stickers icon on the top of the screen. A new sticker screen will pop up where you will see an ” Avatar ” sticker.”

The Instagram Avatar is pretty easy to create and is a fun-to-use feature. It gives you a more personalized experience on the internet, and I would also love to use them on other non-Meta platforms.
