How to create a Memoji for an iPhone contact

Now, why would you want to create a Memoji for a contact? Well, suppose it’s a new contact and they don’t have a contact picture, then you can create a memoji for them instead of adding a random photo. Memojis are quite fun, and that could be another reason why you may want to give your contact a Memoji avatar. Whatever the reason, here’s how to create them on your iOS device.

1) Launch the Contacts or Phone app on your iPhone.

2) Tap on the contact you want to create a memoji for, and then hit the Edit button located on the top right corner.

3) Now select the Add Photo option below the contact picture.

4) Tap the ‘+’ button under the Memoji option.

5) Create your custom Memoji by selecting the Skin type, Hairstyle, Eyes, Head, Mouth, and all the other available options.

6) Once you’re done creating the Memoji for your contact, hit the Done button.

If you like, you could also make your new Memoji pose in front of a background. Your custom Memoji for the contact is now ready to be used.
