Animated Messaging Apps

MimeChat's Chat Messenger Turns Conversations into Lively Cartoons

MimeChat is a new chat messenger app that turns conversations into cute cartoons. Although the latest emoji update for Apple iOS users introduced huge opportunities for color customization, MimeChat takes this idea a step further by allowing its users to create completely personalized virtual characters.

With more than 60 different mime actions built into the app, MimeChat users can embed short chips into chats that express emotions like happiness, sadness, excitement and beyond. In addition to providing rich visual with custom characters, there are also sounds that make the expressions even more lively and fun to share.

Considering the growing popularity of social apps for sharing livestreamed videos and emojis, MimeChat gives Millennials even more ways to express themselves and entertain others.
