Software:Androidify
From HandWiki
Androidify is an old app by Google that allowed users to make Android versions of themselves.[1]
History
Released in 2011, Androidify let a user create custom Android avatars. The Android had been recently removed from the Google Play Store.[2][3]
The body of the robot remains unchanged, but the head sees a minor tweak to the position of the antennae. This logo also moves the eyes slightly down “to bring more humanity.” According to Gandon, "the robot eye use to be high and did not feel like humans. When you take them down a bit, they actually really have contact with you." Meanwhile, Google enjoyed animating the features of the face.[3]
According to Google, the decision to remove Androidify came from declining app usage and age.[3]
