What are Snapchat Cameos?
Building on the huge success of Bitmoji stickers, which basically pasted your Bitmoji avatar in relatable situations, Snapchat Cameos are here to bring your messages to a new level of personalized.
Snapchat Cameos require you to take a picture of your head and then stick that image on top of an existing video from Snapchat’s own video bank. So now, instead of using your animated Bitmoji avatar, you can send a personalized GIF-like video to better portray your feeling!
How to set up Snapchat Cameos
The Snapchat Cameo option is already present in your emoji section, but you probably haven’t noticed it yet(yes, there’s a lot going on there). In order to start using Cameos, you first have to set up your Cameo selfie.
To set up a new Cameo selfie, launch the Snapchat app, and open a chat with any user. Now tap the emoji option next to the chatbox. You should see all your regular Bitmoji stickers (if you have linked Bitmoji to Snapchat)
In the bottom panel, tap the option next to ‘Bitmoji’. The icon displays a face with a + sign on it.
Now tap on any video, and get ready to take a selfie. Position your face perfectly within the given cutout (don’t worry, you can always take another selfie if the first one doesn’t work out), and click the picture.
Next, select your gender, and tap ‘Continue’. You can also choose to skip this step. Now, wait and watch while the app creates your own arsenal of you-faced Cameos! If you do not like the selfie you took, you can choose ‘Retake Selfie’ at this point, to go back to the start.
How to do a two-person cameo on Snapchat
Cameos can also feature another person from your contact list! You will automatically be paired with the person you are chatting with. If you don’t want ‘Two-person Cameo’, select the ‘Disable Two-Person Cameos’ option under the OK button. Otherwise, go ahead and finish up! You should now see yourself staring in your own Cameos.
Note: If you disable ‘Two-person Cameo’, and want to enable it at a later point in time, you will have to remove your Cameo selfie, and redo the process. Read on to learn more.
How to use Snapchat Cameos
Snapchat Cameos work in a similar way to Bitmoji stickers. You must first enter a chat with a user in Snapchat. Since Snapchat Cameos do now have a search option, you will need to use the chatbox itself.
Snapchat Cameos are designed to understand what it is you are talking about in your text, and give you related content. So, once you have typed out your message, view your Cameos by tapping on ‘Emoji’. Your Cameos will appear below your Bitmoji stickers. Select the Cameo you would like to send and simply tap it.
Tip: You can even use single words to find Cameos. For example, typing ‘Hello’ in the chatbox, will bring up related Cameos of you saying Hello.
How to change your Cameo
If it has been a while, and you want to change your Cameo selfie, the only way to do it, it by deleting your old selfie. There is no option to ‘take a new Cameo selfie’.
So, to change your cameo on Snapchat, delete your current one first the guide given below, and then create one again as per the guide given above.
How to delete your Cameo
To delete your Cameo selfie, launch the Snapchat app, and tap on your Bitmoji in the top left corner of the screen. Now go to Settings, and scroll down right to the bottom. Select ‘Clear My Cameos Selfie’, then ‘Clear’. Now simply follow the guide above to take a new Cameo selfie.
Well, now you know how to create and send Snapchat Selfies! Have fun!

Snapchat is one of the best apps for communication because it’s very innovative and different from all the other apps. Snapchat is constantly improving, with many new features being added all the time. One of the most anticipated is the new Cameo feature.
If you’d like to know how to do cameos in Snapchat, you’re in the right place. Keep reading to get some great tips and tricks and learn how to do cameos together with your friends.
That’s right, two-person cameos are also a thing!
What Are Snapchat Cameos?
Is Snapchat allowing its users to star in movies? Well, not exactly. The cameo feature is there to convey a quick video reaction to your Snapchat friends. There are over a hundred simple animated clips to which you can attach your face.
Essentially, a Snapchat cameo is like a selfie you insert into a funny and short animated clip. When you make a Snapchat cameo clip, you can share it with your Snapchat friends via chat. You can also co-star in a Snapchat cameo with your friend, as long as they approve.
Snapchat will remember your selfie (face) and allow you to use it with multiple cameos without the need to keep taking new selfies. Of course, if you want to change the selfie and make a new one, you’re free to do that whenever you please.
Snapchat isn’t the first app that allowed people to do this sort of thing. Some Chinese apps like Zao did something similar. Nonetheless, this is a really fun and goofy feature, and it suits Snapchat very well indeed.
How to Do Snapchat Cameos?
There are two ways to make Snapchat cameos: using your profile page or accessing the option in chat directly. If you prefer to go straight to chat, skip to “Step 5” below, but the profile option is suggested for convenience.
Make or Change Your Snapchat Cameo from Your Profile Page on iOS/Android
- Open “Snapchat,” then access your profile page.
- Scroll down to the bottom and select “Create Cameos Selfie” or choose “Change Cameos Selfie” if one already exists.
- An outlined face appears. Move your camera until your face fits within the outline. Tap on “Create My Cameo” when the button turns blue.
- Choose the “male” or “female” image, then tap on the “Continue” button that turns blue. Your cameo gets created and saved.
- Access “Chat” and select the “friend(s)” that you want to receive your cameo.
- Tap on “
” (smiley face icon) next to the chat box.
- On the bottom, choose “
” (use cameo icon) for Android or “
” for iOS if a cameo already exists and you want to use it. Otherwise, skip to “Step 9” to create a new cameo. - When you choose the “use cameo” icon, select the cameo you want from the bottom of the screen, and it will automatically send the clip to your friend with your face in it. You’re done.
- If you want to create a new cameo or don’t have one yet, tap the “
” (add cameo icon). If you don’t see it, try reverting to “Steps 1-4” using your profile page.
- Reaccess chat, following “Steps 5-8.” Your cameo clip now gets sent to the recipient. You’re done.
Now that you’ve created your cameo outline, you can keep sending various cameos from the chat window while talking to your friends on Snapchat. You can also create quick cameos from the “Recent” tab since the app will remember your cameo pattern.
You can change this pattern whenever you please by visiting the “Cameo” menu once again and choosing a different Cameo tile. After that, tap the “More” button and choose “New Selfie.” You can also preview your selfie first.
How to Do Two-Person Snapchat Cameos?
Everything on Snapchat is more enjoyable when you do it with friends. Cameos can also be a joint effort. When you first make a cameo, you can enable two-person cameos. Tap on that and enable making them with friends.
This way, you’ll be able to enjoy making a double-feature cameo and have a lot of fun with your besties. For now, only two people can participate in Snapchat cameos, but perhaps that number will grow in the future.
Also, ensure to allow your friends to use your cameo selfie. Otherwise, cameos with friends won’t work.
- Open “Snapchat” and go to your “profile.”
- Select “Settings” and choose “Use my Cameos Selfie.”
- Choose “Everyone” or “My Friends.” If you choose “Only Me,” you won’t be able to take two-person cameos on Snapchat.
