This wikiHow teaches you how to reset your Bitmoji avatar so you can select a different gender. Perhaps you've selected the wrong gender at first, or you want to reuse your account for someone else. Recreating your Bitmoji from scratch is the only way to change its gender.
Steps
-
1Open the Bitmoji app on your phone or tablet. It’s the green icon with a white winking chat bubble. You'll find it on your home screen or in your app list.
- The only way to change your Bitmoji’s gender is to reset your avatar. You’ll lose all of your custom details (facial features, hair, outfit, etc), but you’ll be able to select a new gender when creating your new avatar.
