The Dollify app is the new trend on social media and allows anyone to create a personalized doll (caricature) to use as an avatar.
A new fashion is making the head (and avatars) of social networks. Although Dollify has been released for some time, it has been a few days since it caught the attention of most Brazilian users. With it you can create a doll (caricature) to use on Facebook, Instagram or WhatsApp.
The application that has its name derived from the word Doll, which means “Doll” in English, is available for free download on Android and iOS smartphones and tablets ( iPhone and iPad).
Launched late last year, Dollify has now topped the list of most downloaded software on the App Store and Google Play Store, beating giants like WhatsApp, Instagram andYouTube in downloads last month.
The app is easy to use and allows you to modify various aspects of your design so that it has the same features as the user.
How to make a doll on Dollify?
After downloading the app to your smartphone you can customize almost anything except the rounded shape of the face, which makes the avatar look like a puppet.
When you open the app, the first thing it asks is what your gender is, so that from there, you can create a puppet from scratch. There are 14 personalization categories, which include eyes, nose, mouth, eyebrows, hair, earrings and necklaces. There is also the possibility to use popular Instagram and Facebook filters.
As you can see from a large number of editing categories, there are many possible combinations possible, which makes a characterization that is your face easier to achieve.
The finish that Dollify allows is impressive. From the size of the mouth to expression marks, signs and freckles, you can make your doll look a lot like you.
