How to Make an Avatar for Zoom Calls?

You need to create an avatar from your handset and install the desktop version of the software for using it with Zoom or any other supported program. If you don’t want to customize your avatar, you can skip that process. The directions covered here are for LoomieLive for Windows as well as the macOS program. The Loomie application is, however, available only for Android and iOS.

  1. Install the Loomie app on your Android or iOS device.
  2. Click on the camera button and take a picture of yourself. To get the best shot, make sure you follow the on-screen guide.
  3. You need to pick up a Loomie variation from the various options given there. You can also swap between genders from the buttons given at the bottom.
  4. Then click on the Sign In button so as to create an account and to save your avatar.
  5. If you want to make any customization, do it and then click on save after you have finished customizing
