How to Add AirPods to Your Animoji

If you’re an iOS user, you’ve probably a fan of Animoji and Memoji. These stickers make texting and chatting fun and add color to our black and white social media posts.

Among stickers, there’s a wide range of almost anything you can imagine. You can find pretty much anything from smiley faces to hearts, from drinks to animals, from sun and stars to vehicles, and much more. The best thing about them is that you can customize them, so they resemble you.

And if you have your AirPods, why wouldn’t your sticker have them too?

Adding AirPods to Animoji

Animoji was introduced in 2017 and immediately became popular because it could mimic your face. So no wonder the upgraded version, Memoji, has been an enormous hit – who wouldn’t like an avatar that looks just like them?

Now that you’ve got your AirPods, you can customize your virtual self to have them as well. Here’s what you need to do.

  1. Launch the messaging app on your phone.
  2. Tap the Animoji icon at the bottom.
  3. Pick the Memoji you’d like to customize and tap Edit.
  4. Select the part of the Memoji you’d like to edit.
  5. From the options available, choose Ears and scroll to Audio.
  6. Choose the AirPods and tap Done to confirm and save.

However, before the iOS 13 software update, these were only available on Face ID devices. Now you can use them on non-Face ID devices as well but without the video and facial tracking options.

Here’s how to add the AirPods on a non-Face ID device:

  1. Open an iMessage thread and tap on Stickers.
  2. Pick a Memoji and scroll to the bottom.
  3. Tap the three dots and then Edit.
  4. Select a part of your emoji and go through the available options to find Ears.
  5. Tap on Ears and scroll down to find and add the AirPods.
  6. Tap Done to save your changes.

Animoji, Memoji and the Whole World of Fun

Sending a message will never be the same again. Thanks to iOS, you can reply in the cutest and most hilarious ways and make any chat interesting. You can use a regular Animoji, create your own Memoji, give it life, and do whatever you want. The best thing is, you can do all of it with your AirPods nicely placed in your ears – both in the real and the virtual worlds.
