Strikethrough text generator FAQ

How does a strikethrough line get added to plain text?

A combining Unicode mark is inserted after every letter, which the app rendering the text draws as a line through, above, or under the character. It is not real text formatting, just extra characters attached to each letter.

Does this work in apps without a strikethrough button?

Yes, that is the main use case. Places like Instagram bios, most chat apps and comment fields do not offer a strikethrough option, but they display the Unicode marks correctly since it is still plain text.

Will the strikethrough line look the same in every app?

The overall effect is consistent, but spacing between letters can look slightly tighter or looser depending on the font the destination app uses.
