Snapchat is planning to bring sunshine and confetti to your Bitmoji: report

Snap Map appears set to get two new features that will better illustrate a user's day by creating Bitmoji effects that show their physical environment.  

This time last year Snapchat introduced its Snap Map, putting Bitmojis in a user's last seen location onto a map. Since then, a user's Bitmoji world has received a few fun and addictive features, such as ‘Explore' for getting updates on where friends are travelling to and ‘Actionmoji', which predict a user's activity so the Bitmoji can do the same. Near an airport? Your lookalike avatar is flying a plane on Snap Map.
