How to make strikethrough text for Instagram and social media

To make strikethrough text: type your text in the box above and it is instantly converted to strikethrough text (for example, "Hello" becomes "H̶e̶l̶l̶o̶"). Click Copy, then paste it into your Instagram bio, caption, WhatsApp status, TikTok, Twitter/X, Facebook, or Discord. Cross out text with a line through it. It works because the tool converts your letters into special Unicode characters that display as styled text everywhere, without needing any app or font installation.

What is strikethrough text and how does it work?

Strikethrough Text is text made from special Unicode characters that look like cross out text with a line through it. Unlike a font, which only changes how text looks in one app, Unicode strikethrough text carries its styling everywhere you paste it — because each character is a distinct symbol in the Unicode standard. That is why "H̶e̶l̶l̶o̶" keeps its style whether you paste it into Instagram, a text message, or a document. This generator converts your normal text to these characters instantly and privately in your browser.
