Frequently Asked Questions

Why does this work when Instagram has no bold or italic button?

Instagram, TikTok, and most social apps only allow plain text - there is no built-in way to format it. This tool sidesteps that by using special characters that are already part of the standard text alphabet (called Unicode). They are not fonts or images - they are regular characters that simply look bold, italic, or styled. Because they are plain text, they paste and display perfectly.

Will these styles actually show up in my Instagram bio?

Yes. Type your text here, click a style to copy it, then paste it straight into your Instagram bio field. It will look exactly as shown in the preview - on both iOS and Android.

Why not just use bold in Notes or Word and copy from there?

Bold and italic in apps like Notes or Word are visual formatting that gets stripped the moment you paste into Instagram or TikTok. The characters this tool produces look styled on their own - no formatting needed - so nothing is lost when you paste.

Do strikethrough, underline, and glitch work on all platforms?

Strikethrough and underline work on virtually all platforms including Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, and Discord. The glitch style uses a lot of stacked characters and may look messy in a small number of older apps, but it works well on all major social platforms.
