Looking for the latest ways to amp up your text conversations with friends and family? Samsung AR Stickers takes smartphone communication to the next level, allowing you to send messages using your own personalized, 3D avatar.
Check out our beginner’s guide to AR stickers from Samsung to learn more about what they are and how to start using them today.
What Are Samsung AR Stickers?
Samsung AR Stickers are computer-generated characters you can make using the camera on your Galaxy S9 or S9+. You can create a sticker that’s totally unique to you (called an AR Emoji), or you can save time by selecting another character, like a bunny, clown, or even Disney characters like Mickey and Minnie.
Any character you choose will move along with your face motion. So go ahead: wink, stick out your tongue, smile, or belt out a solo — your AR Sticker will follow along!
Once you’ve created your avatar, you can record and send animated messages that add a quirky splash of fun to your voice texts.
