During a video call, WhatsApp has been working on a feature that would let users switch to an avatar while turning off the camera. According to earlier rumours, the feature would be accessible once users join a video conference and turn off the camera. According to a recent article, the business intends to expand beyond providing Avatars for video conversations by converting them into stickers.

After they've done that, WhatsApp will instantly transform their Avatar into a sticker pack with a variety of faces and emotions, including, among others, meh face, crying, love, heartbreak, LOL, mind blowing, and perplexed. Then, just like other stickers on the site, WhatsApp users will be able to message their friends and family using this Avatar sticker collection.
