Turn a doodle into an emoji

Draw Emoji reads your sketch and redraws it as an emoji. Shaky lines become smooth curves, an almost-closed loop is closed, a wobbly circle becomes a clean one and a rough square gets straight sides. Every area your lines close in — with one stroke or several, like an ear drawn against the side of the head — becomes a flat emoji-coloured shape, and your lines stay as a clean outline, so even a quick scribble looks like a sticker.

Your face, cleaned up — or a real emoji face

Your face stays yours: eyes drawn as circles become white eyes with dark pupils looking where you drew them, dots become neat dark eyes, brows, noses and smiles become smooth brush strokes. Want a classic emoji instead? Press 😀 Emoji face and your marks are swapped for real emoji eyes and mouths — dots, ovals, ^ ^ smiling eyes, x x, calm lines or a wink, and a smile, a frown, a straight mouth, an O or a zigzag.

Five looks for every drawing

Under your emoji you see it in five styles at once: Emoji — flat colours with a soft shade and highlight, Sticker — a white die-cut border with a shadow, ready for Telegram and WhatsApp, Kawaii — pastel colours, rosy cheeks and sparkling eyes, Comic — bold black outlines, and 3D look — glossy and round. Lines are coloured to match their shape, nearly straight lines are straightened, nearly symmetric shapes become symmetric, a pair of eyes gets the same size and height, stick arms and legs become soft rounded limbs, hair tapers from the root and a line under your figure becomes the ground with a soft shadow.

Your colours, your layers

Keep Auto colours — parts attached to a shape, like ears or a body, get its colour a shade darker — or pick your own before drawing, and repaint any part later with one tap. Press ✏️ Edit layers to move, resize or rotate each part in the same layer editor as the emoji mixer and the emoji generator. Download a transparent PNG or an SVG, copy it into a chat, or turn it into a 3D model with SVG to 3D | PNG to 3D.

Frequently asked questions

How does Draw Emoji work?

Draw on the left and your emoji appears on the right as you go. Wobbly lines are smoothed, small gaps are closed, near-circles become clean circles, and every area closed in by your lines is filled with a flat emoji colour. Everything runs in your browser — your drawing never leaves your device.

How do I draw an emoji face?

Draw a head, then eyes, brows, a nose and a mouth — they are cleaned up and kept as you drew them: circles become white eyes with pupils, dots become dark eyes, lines become smooth brush strokes. Press 😀 Emoji face to swap them for real emoji parts: dots or ovals become open eyes, ^ ^ smiling eyes, x x knocked-out eyes, a curve up a smile, a curve down a frown, a small circle an O.

Can I change the colours?

Yes. Pick a colour before you draw and the next shape uses it, or keep Auto: heads become emoji yellow, hearts red, stars gold, other shapes get colours from the emoji palette. To repaint a finished part, choose a colour and tap that part of your emoji.

Can I move the eyes or the mouth afterwards?

Yes. Press ✏️ Edit layers: the head, the details, the eyes and the mouth are separate layers, with the eyes and mouth always on top. Drag, resize, rotate, recolour or hide any of them.

Can I download my emoji or make it 3D?

Download a transparent PNG or an SVG, or copy the image into any chat. Press 🧊 Make it 3D to open your emoji in SVG to 3D, where you can turn it into a glossy, puffy or voxel 3D model.
