Create and send Memoji in Messages on iPad

You can design your own personalized Memoji—choose skin tone, glasses, body, and more. You can create multiple Memoji to use in different contexts. Each Memoji—even the ones you create—automatically generates a range of poses and expressions. On supported models, you can send animated Memoji messages that record your voice and mirror your facial expressions.

A menu open in a Messages conversation showing a Memoji in many different poses.

  1. Go to the Messages app on your iPad.

  2. In a conversation, tap the Add button.

  3. Tap Memoji. (You may have to swipe up.)

  4. Tap the Add Memoji button.

    Tip: To make a new Memoji whose outfit or appearance differs slightly from one you already have, tap to select it, tap the Edit button, then tap Duplicate.

  5. Tap each feature (Skin, Hairstyle, and others to the right) and choose the options you want.

  6. Tap the Done button to save the Memoji to your collection.
