Those who have an iPhone X or newer models of the iPhone, starting from iOS 12, can in fact use the camera to transform themselves into a personalized animated drawing in the somatic traits, very similar and characterized.
With an augmented reality effect, the transformation is "live", that is, live from the camera on which you can mirror yourself with the drawn face that moves exactly in the way we move, also copying expressions of eyes and mouth.
The difference between Animoji and Emoji and Emoticon lies in the fact that the first ones, those of Apple, are animated and move according to the expression we make taken by the camera.
The difference between Memoji and Animoji, on the other hand, lies in the fact that the Memoji, or the animated emoticon emoticon, is automatically drawn so that it resembles us.

Then you can correct your face to make it look more like, thus changing your head, hair, eyes, mouth, lips, eyebrows, nose and then adding elements such as glasses or ribbons for your hair and to choose clothes.
The app consists of 5 main sections, each accessible from the buttons below:
- The home : the main screen, where you can see your avatar, change your face, change your clothes and where you can also change the furniture and furnishings of the scenario and choose the animation with which the avatar introduces himself to others.

Coins can be earned by playing or by buying packages with real money and micropayments.
- The search allows you to browse images and photos of other users and know who the most popular "Zepetos" are.
From here it is possible, by scrolling downwards, to enter one of the Streets which would be the meeting places .
In a Street you will see other avatars pass with which you can exchange messages to make new friends and it is the most important section from the point of view of the social network.
- The PhotoBooth, with its central album-shaped icon, allows you to see scenarios in which to insert your avatar to create new images to share.

Finally, you can tap on the search box at the top to add friends.
Each Zepeto is marked by a code that can be found in the personal profile card.
As you can see, while the app is fun in its possibilities to create a personalized Animoji with your own face to create images and videos, the part of the social network is structured a bit like Instagram, with the possibility of following who is more. nice and makes more interesting photos.
The problem with Zepeto is that to make yourself beautiful it becomes necessary to play a lot or use real money to buy packs of coins.
Fortunately, the costs of the coins are not that high and from the Home tab you can buy about 15000 coins for three Euros, which will be enough to buy practically anything.
From the point of view of the graphics, the Animoji of Zepeto are very similar to those of Apple, therefore highly appreciated.
Zepeto therefore becomes a nice alternative to Bitmoji to create personalized Emojis from your own face, which to date has certainly been the best app in this category.
Zepeto can be downloaded free for both Android and iPhone from the respective stores.
The app requires certain permissions to operate, including that of using and recording from the phone's microphone.
According to some, this can be a privacy problem that would allow the application to record what we say at all times.
At the moment, however, there is no evidence of this fact, which would be quite serious, and while access to the microphone can be denied without problems, it will however prevent you from being able to record videos using the emoji.
