Bitmojis can be used as Profile pictures as announced by Twitter since Twitter is recently purchased by Tesla’s owner Elon Musk.
Twitter is currently testing a new feature to the app that will let users display their Bitmoji as their twitter profile picture. This will enable users to use their digital avatar as a mean of representation outside of Snapchat.
Bitmojis can be used as Profile pictures and this will link user’s Twitter profile to user’s Snapchat account because Snapchat owns Bitmojis. In other words, this feature will provide users with a direct link connecting their twitter and snapchat profiles.
That is very interesting if we talk from the perspective of competition given that both of the apps largely work in a very competitive environment. But this should be kept in mind that twitter does not have any Bitmoji creation tools of its own so it just looks like Twitter asking for a leg up from Snapchat.
This also benefits Snapchat as they have been looking for ways to make their Bitmoji characters a bigger part of the in app experience even launching branded clothes to enable the users with more ways to express themselves and their identity in the app.
All this expansion is making sense as every day we are moving towards the future where the Metaverse will be our main point of interaction which we will do with our digital avatar versions.
