Voila AI Artist is the latest cartoon craze going around Facebook, Instagram and more. It’s free on iPhone and Android.<\/p>\n

When I first saw the cartoon avatar appear on my Facebook feed, my eyes went as wide as the cherubic rendering before me. It was my cousin’s daughters, but Disney-fied, with lighting that glowed, and supersize eyes quivering with emotion. “Which app is this?” I asked her, instantly needing to know. She told me: Voila AI Artist<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Since then, creations from Voila AI Artist — an app that seemingly popped up out of nowhere — have mushroomed across my Facebook feed, and proliferate on Instagram and WhatsApp as well. (Both are owned by Facebook.) Drawn to the sophisticated cartoon art and how it managed to capture the character of my friends of all ages, I downloaded the app and tried it out for myself. It’s free for\u00a0iPhone<\/a> and\u00a0Android<\/a>, with a premium ad-free option as well (more on that, and on the app’s privacy policy, below).<\/p>\n

There’s something about avatars I find irresistibly compelling, from the very first Yahoo Messenger avatar I ever used, to Bitmoji stickers and beyond, as if our cartoon selves have the power to capture a core essence while outstretching a more playful version of ourselves. At any rate, it took less than five minutes to download Voila AI Artist and make my first cartoon grid. I also learned a few things along the way. Here’s how to do it and what to know.<\/p>\n

How to make your cartoon avatar using Voila AI Artist<\/h2>\n

Step 1<\/strong>: Download Voila AI Artist for\u00a0iPhone<\/a> or\u00a0Android<\/a>, and launch the app. It will ask for permission to use your phone’s camera roll.<\/p>\n

Step 2<\/strong>: Select from among the four styles: 3D Cartoon (what I used here), Renaissance, 2D Cartoon and Caricature. Tap the arrow to begin.<\/p>\n

Step 3<\/strong>: Your camera roll is now open. Select the photo you want to use, or tap Camera<\/strong> or Celebrities<\/strong> at the bottom of the screen to take a new picture or to search for celebrities. This generates a grid of four options. On the free version, expect to see an ad or two interrupt your view. After a few beats, you can X out the ad and return to your images.<\/p>\n

Step 4<\/strong>: You’ll see four options — the composite grid of your original photo plus your three cartoon renderings, and all three renderings (Royalty 3D, Baby 3D and Cartoon 3D). You can either take a screenshot from here and crop it down, or select any of the four options and click the edit button — an up arrow on Android — to immediately share on Facebook, Instagram or WhatsApp, or to email, save or share through other options (when you press More<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

To remove the watermark, speed up the rendering process and remove the ads you see each time you render, you could update to the Voila Pro version for $2 per week, $4 per month or $21 a year — the price at the time of writing. There’s a free, three-day trial with that option.<\/p>\n
