I enjoy all web tools that let me create impressive cartoon icons and avatars. In these tools I particularly enjoy tools that let us create icons resembling the cartoons or animations we already know. For example I have been using and having fun with the Avatar icon creator, the South Park icon creator, and the Simpsons icon creator a lot. Creating an icon that looks like you as well as a popular cartoon often has amusing results that are fun to share with your friends.

Adding to the list of these tools is the wonderful “Androidify.”

Androidify is both, similar and different, to the abovementioned tools. The difference is that while the abovementioned tools are browser-based online applications, Androidify is a smartphone application compatible with Android devices. The similarity is that the app lets you create a cartoon version of yourself; in this case, the cartoon version is in the style of the Android robot.

You start by downloading the application that is sized at nearly 1.4MB. Next you start with a basic image; you stretch the image, shrink it, add a hoody, style its hair, throw on some shades, or do whatever else you can to make the icon look like you or a friend. The customization options available are quite impressive.
You can customize the final icon to look like anybody you want.

Your created icons can be shared with friends or be assigned to contacts in your phonebook.

The application is a wonderfully fun idea that its users are thoroughly enjoying.
