Send your .avatar file to Animaze Avatar iOS app (on Windows, via Animaze Editor)

The .avatar file format acts like a container which can hold multiple types of avatar content, such as 3D/2D avatars, props, backgrounds.

4. Now, open the Animaze application on your mobile device. Click on the Settings wheel in the upper right corner of the main screen 

5. Scroll down to Animaze Editor and click Connect 

6. The rear camera is now open to point at the QR code and scan it

7. A confirmation of the connection will be received on your phone app (left image) and on the Animaze Editor (right image)

          

Now that you’ve connected the devices together, the next steps send the avatar to your mobile:
