Turn into a cute cartoon

Ever wondered what you would look like as a cartoon? With ZEPETO, you can recreate yourself into a 3D animated cartoon that can also function as chat emojis! The app will also let you release your creativity by allowing you to customize your avatar, assign a greeting, and much more.

Becoming an emoji

ZEPETO focuses on trying to capture your features as accurately as possible to create an emoji or avatar that will undeniably look like you. To get things started, the app will ask you to take a selfie and from that, it will try to capture and recreate your looks, transforming it into a 3D cartoon. If you are not satisfied with the outcome, you can change and adjust your features until you think your avatar looks exactly like you do. For instance, if your eyebrows are thicker than what ZEPETO made it be, you can either manually fix it or choose from the app’s presets. 

While the app’s very essence is to create an emoji that looks like you, of course, you do not have to just settle for a basic look. ZEPETO will also let you experiment on yourself. If you want to change your hairstyle or hair color, you are free to do so! It has many featured assets available for you to try in order to make your avatar more like you not only in appearance but also in style. Customizing also does not end with just your avatar. Backgrounds can be changed as well and we are not talking about just altering the colors. ZEPETO will let you decorate your own place! You will have your very own room complete with furniture and other items like books and picture frames. This can be seen by others when they check your profile. Additionally, text greetings can also be included like “thank you,” “sorry,” and “I miss you.” 

But wait, there’s more

The app is more than just an avatar maker. Believe it or not, it has its own community of users who you can be friends with. There are also daily tasks that you need to perform in order to gain coins, which you can spend to buy new clothes and items for your avatar and your room. Aside from that, your avatar is also capable of making moves and doing poses that can be saved as an emoji or a profile picture for your other accounts. 

A secret spy?

Rumor has it the ZEPETO is secretly trackings its users. This assumption spread like wildfire in the Twitter community after many users claimed that when you put your phone in your ear while using the app, you will hear a static noise or a very faint buzzing sound. Sounds scary? Well, we are not going to argue with that but despite these claims running in the rumor mill, there is actually no solid evidence to support this. Upon registering, ZEPETO does not ask its users to disclose their location. Aside from simply asking permission to use your camera and for your selfie, the app does not demand any other personal information like your home address. As for the static and buzzing sounds? It is possible that the problem lies with the device itself and not the app. You can rest assured that the app is safe and has no way to know where its users live. 

Have fun with your own emojis

ZEPETO is a cool app to have that you can really enjoy. Being able to make yourself an emoji is a fun and better way to express yourselves. Its mini-games also keep the app interesting to use.
