This tool wraps each non-blank line of your text in WhatsApp's formatting markers: asterisks for bold, underscores for italic, tildes for strikethrough, or three backticks for monospace. Paste the result into WhatsApp. Blank lines stay as they are. Check WhatsApp's current help pages, as formatting support can change.

  3. Copy the result.
  4. Paste it into WhatsApp and check how it looks before sending to many people.
Questions

WhatsApp Text Formatter — FAQ

Why format every line separately?

WhatsApp formatting generally applies within a line, so wrapping each line keeps the style working across a multi-line message.

Can I combine styles?

The bold italic option nests the two markers. Support for combined styles can differ between WhatsApp versions, so test with a real chat.

Does the formatting show everywhere?

Formatting is shown in WhatsApp chats, but other apps just show the raw marker characters. Check Meta's current documentation for details.
