Frequently Asked Questions

How does strikethrough text work?

Strikethrough text is created by adding Unicode combining characters (such as U+0336) after each letter. These invisible characters instruct the renderer to draw a horizontal line through the preceding character.

Where can I use strikethrough text?

Unicode strikethrough text works on most platforms including Instagram, Twitter/X, Facebook, Discord, WhatsApp, Telegram, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, and more. It also works in emails and documents.

Is there a difference between Unicode strikethrough and Markdown strikethrough?

Yes. Unicode strikethrough (using combining characters) works everywhere text is displayed because the formatting is embedded in the characters themselves. Markdown strikethrough (~~text~~) only renders on platforms that support Markdown, such as Discord, Slack, Reddit, and GitHub.

Can I use strikethrough text on mobile?

Yes. This tool works on all mobile browsers. Simply type or paste your text, tap the copy button, and paste the strikethrough text into any app.
