You can design your own personalized Memoji: choose skin tone, glasses, body, and more. You can create multiple Memoji to use in different contexts, and each one automatically generates a range of poses and expressions.
On supported models, you can send animated Memoji messages that record your voice and mirror your facial expressions. And if you want a new Memoji that’s only slightly different from one you already have, you can duplicate it and edit the copy.
Create Memoji
- Start the Messages app on your iPhone.
- In a conversation, tap the Add button.
- Tap Memoji. (You may have to swipe up.)
-
Tap the Add Memoji button.
Tip: To make a new Memoji whose outfit or appearance differs slightly from one you already have, tap to select it, tap the Edit button, then tap Duplicate.
- Tap each feature (Skin, Hairstyle, and others to the right) and choose the options you want.
- Tap the Done button to save the Memoji to your collection.
Send animated Memoji or Memoji recordings
If you have a supported model, you can send Memoji messages that mirror your facial expressions and record your voice.

Memoji can also capture your movements, facial expressions, and voice when you use video effects in a video call.
