Snapchat Introduces Feature to Convert Pets into AI Avatars

Snapchat+ has introduced a charming new feature for its premium subscribers – AI-powered pet Bitmojis. This exclusive addition allows users to transform images of their beloved pets into cartoon avatars that accompany them on the Snap Map.

To utilize this feature, subscribers can snap a picture of their furry companions, and the AI will generate various cartoon versions for selection. While customization options may not be as extensive as with human Bitmojis, the AI aims to capture the essence of pets, creating virtual twins on the Snap Map.

Since its launch in 2022, Snapchat’s subscription service has provided exclusive access to AI-powered features like the MyAI assistant, creative camera filters with Dreams, and AI-generated snaps. Many companies, including X (formerly Twitter), are moving their AI features behind subscriptions, offering users compelling products to justify ongoing payments. Snapchat’s subscription model has proven successful thus far.

For non-subscribers, Snapchat is still offering updates for all users. A new template feature simplifies clip editing, while new swipe gestures enhance snap sending and editing. Additionally, users can now upload longer videos, with in-app captures extending up to three minutes and uploads up to five minutes, providing greater creative freedom for Snapchat Stories.
