Don’t want to be an animal on your Zoom call? Be a human instead.

Zoom is adding human avatars to Zoom calls, which could be a good option if you don’t want to show up to your next meeting as a dog. You can see what the human avatars look like in the image below, though I have to say I prefer the animal avatars.

The company is also adding threaded messages in chat, which is something I hope every video chat client steals immediately. You can read about all the new features on Zoom’s blog.

The new avatars are available in beta.
