How to Link Your Bitmoji Account With Snapchat

When Snapchat bought Bitmoji maker Bitstrips in March 2016, it became clear that the company was trying to up its emoji presence. Snapchat’s always been one of the more fun social apps, and Bitmoji integration seemed like it would make a perfect fit.

This week, we saw that integration go live, and it hasn’t disappointed.

Snapchatters can now link their Bitmoji account with their Snapchat account with a few simple steps. This gives the app more personalization – making the Snapchat experience better all around.

Here are the steps you need to take to get your own personal Bitmoji within Snapchat.
