In professional documents, crossing out text implies a correction or a deletion. In the world of social media, strikethrough text (e.g., "I̶ ̶l̶o̶v̶e̶ ̶h̶a̶t̶e̶ you") is a powerful styling tool used for humor, sarcasm, or to show a "change of mind" in real-time.
Apps like WhatsApp have formatting options, but Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok do not. Our tool generates Unicode strikethrough characters that you can copy and paste anywhere to create this effect instantly.
Top Use Cases
- Price Corrections: "Was $̶5̶0̶ Now $25!" (Great for sales posts).
- Sarcastic Comments: "I am totally n̶o̶t̶ obsessed with this."
- To-Do Lists: Manually cross out completed items in your digital notes.
- Edgy Usernames: Add a grunge aesthetic to your gamertag (e.g., ̶D̶e̶a̶d̶S̶h̶o̶t̶).
How It Works
We use the "Combining Long Stroke Overlay" Unicode character (U+0336). When you type a letter, our tool places this stroke character immediately after it, causing the browser to render a continuous line through your text.
