About this app

Make, design and merge your own DIY emoji with Emoji Maker, the DIY Emoji Maker built for the US — combine expressions, customize colors and get unique designs for WhatsApp, Telegram and all your chats.

Stop hunting for the perfect emoji among thousands. Here you decide how each one looks — an emoji creator that prioritizes speed and personalization. No login, no long tutorials, no waiting on the cloud.

🔑 Key features

- 🎨 Create custom emojis from scratch
Combine bases, eyes, mouths, accessories and colors to design an emoji that's 100% personal. A DIY Emoji Maker that feels more like a personal studio than a generic collection.

- 🔀 Merge & blend emojis for new combinations
Pick two and fuse them into one. The mixer generates results you won't find on any keyboard.

- ✏️ Visual layer editor + Smart AI background remover
Design in detail with a layer editor: expressions, decorations and accessories. Remove the background from any photo with on-device AI — local machine learning, nothing sent to the cloud. Real photos, real backgrounds, no AI-generated faces. Built for making emojis by hand, no design skills needed.

- 📲 Stickers for WhatsApp, Telegram and Discord
Export your creations as native sticker packs. Personalized stickers available with a tap in WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, Discord and the main chats.

- ♾️ Endless emoji generator
Every combination is unique. Design, save and start over as many times as you like. A generator without limits to your creativity.

- 🔒 Privacy and local processing
Your creations are processed on your device. Nothing uploaded to the cloud, nothing shared with third parties. What's designed belongs to you.

- 📂 Local library of your designs
Every creation saved in an internal gallery. Organize into folders, restore previous versions and share straight from the app.

- 🌍 Built for English-speaking US users
Interface, help and templates in clear English. Optimized for the US market.

Lowering my review to 1 star because even though I deleted this thing the same day I downloaded it, they still charged me the $32 subscription fee! There was literally a pop-up warning when I uninstalled it, saying that doing so would cancel my subscription. Apparently not. Developers: If you're going to charge such an exorbitant price for a basic customization app (that doesn't even include use instructions), at least make sure the user still has it installed first!

This app is free for 3 days then charges $29.99 per year. There are no instructions for using the app. After making an emoji or at least thinking an emoji is made, there doesn't appear to be any way to download it so it's accessible to the social media being used to send messages. One review says the premium version has to be purchased to do this.
