Microsoft recently introduced an Apple Animoji-like feature in SwiftKey app called Puppets. Puppets uses Microsoft’s computer vision AI to copy your expressions and head movements. After you create your Puppet, you can share it directly in most Android chat and social apps. For now, these five characters are available: Dinosaur, Panda, Cat, Owl and Dog.

You can download the updated beta app here from Play Store.
