Who wants to run a comb through their hair simply to take a call? Our prayers have been heard, as Meta has provided a set of technologies that enable the use of animated avatars during video conferences.

You can take part in video conversations, but since only your avatar will be visible to the other participants, you are free to wear a luxurious face mask or to lie in the filth of an unclean flat if you like. Users of Instagram and Messenger can now access the feature.
