Why can’t I make an avatar on Duolingo?

If you’re having trouble creating your avatar on your Duolingo app, there could be two main reasons:

  • Older App Version: Make sure you have the latest version of the Duolingo app, as older versions may not have the avatar feature.
  • Clear Cache: If you’re using an Android phone, try clearing your Duolingo app’s cache. Sometimes, the cache can cause the app not to work properly.

Can I use a custom image for my avatar?

No, Duolingo doesn’t let you use your own picture to make an avatar yet. You have to design the avatar yourself.
