Snapwit
First impressions can be hard. But I’m pretty sure a video of your face in a cartoon is a great way to break the ice.
Snapwit has tons of cartoon overlays it calls MOJIs. You can record your face inside the box and boom there is a video of you as a cartoon super hero. There are tons to choose from monkeys to construction workers to cavemen. It couldn’t be easier. Choose your MOJI, align your face, and record your message. Snapwith makes it quick and easy to share with everyone.
There are also plenty of video greetings you can create as well. These are more traditional effects and overlays like Happy Birthday, Invitations, or film borders. They are just as easy to create and share as the MOJIs right on your phone.
