“Make a doodle” is about as plain a request as it gets, and the tool keeps it that way. There’s no canvas to learn and no menu to master — you point at a photo, say a few words, and a doodle comes back. That is the whole loop.
The simplest way to make one
Making a doodle is really three moves: attach a photo, describe it briefly, generate. The Normal skill turns your photo into a square doodle in the house style — bold outlines, flat color, warm-white background — keeping the features that make the subject recognizable.

A prompt to make your first one
Make a doodle of me. Keep the glasses and the short hair. Flat color, no text, warm-white background.
Short and specific works best. Name a couple of features and let the model handle the rest.
