To answer what data Bitmoji collects, let’s take a look at its privacy policy. When reading this, it feels like you may end up in a privacy-loss nightmare by innocently tapping “Allow.” It says that granting Bitmoji keyboard full access allows the developer to access, record, and transmit everything you type, including your sensitive information – passwords, banking details, addresses, and phone numbers. This permission request is what bugs many users because it sounds like the app wants a little too much.Īpple’s default warning message doesn’t make it easier.
Third-party keyboard apps (including Bitmoji) ask you to choose “allow full access” to operate. In any case, Bitmoji’s privacy policies are much more concerning than the app’s security. Keep in mind that it is intended for audiences of 13 and above, so Bitmoji is not considered safe for kids under 12. If you keep it up to date, the app should be safe. It’s a legitimate app built by the creators of Snapchat, a popular social media app. While hackers often use fake keyboard apps to steal users’ passwords and spread malware, Bitmoji is not a virus or a malicious app.
