Apple plans to introduce generative AI experiences to the iPhone later this year. After Apple WWDC, reports suggest Google might bring similar Genmoji-like AI features to Pixel devices.
This move would be great for Google since it simplifies creating fun images of friends and family, enhancing conversations.
However, you don’t need to wait. You can already get similar functionality on your Android phone with Microsoft’s free Copilot app, which lets you generate Genmoji-like images and create stickers from them.
How to Use the Microsoft Copilot App to Generate Genmoji-Like Stickers
- Open the Copilot app, and enter a detailed prompt.
Note: You can’t create images without signing in with your Microsoft account.
Example: “Make a cute caricature of an old woman, living with her cats in a mountain lodge. She is in her 70s, wears glasses, and is of Indian origin. She has long, white hair.”
- Submit the prompt and wait for the images to be created.
- Once you get the images you like, tap on a variation, and hit the Download button.
That’s it! A cute caricature should now be saved on your phone, and you can share it with friends and family.
How to Use These AI-Made Images as Stickers
While you can share these images as they are, the real enjoyment comes from sharing them as stickers on social media. Here’s how you can transform them into Instagram stickers:
- Open the DM chat of the person you intend to send the sticker to.
- Tap the + icon at the bottom left of the chat, then choose Sticker, tap on Cutouts, and select the image you created using Copilot.
Note: You can select any image to make a sticker; it’s not limited to AI-generated images.
- Let it process, then tap Save Sticker.
- Now, you have it saved as a sticker and can send it to anyone you wish.
