Free WhatsApp Message Formatter

To make text bold in WhatsApp, place an asterisk (*) before and after the word or phrase. For example, *hello* appears as bold text. This works in personal chats, group messages, and WhatsApp Channels. The asterisks must touch the first and last character — spaces between the asterisk and text will prevent formatting.

To italicize text in WhatsApp, place an underscore (_) before and after the text. For example, _hello_ appears as italicized text. You can combine italic with bold by nesting the markers: *_bold and italic_* renders as bold italic text.

To strikethrough text in WhatsApp, place a tilde (~) before and after the text. For example, ~hello~ appears with a line through it. Strikethrough is useful for showing corrections, price changes, or crossed-out items in lists.

For inline monospace text, use single backticks: `hello` renders in a fixed-width font. For multi-line code blocks, use triple backticks (```) on separate lines before and after your code. Code blocks are useful for sharing code snippets, formatted data, or any text that needs precise spacing.

You can combine multiple formatting styles in a single message. Formatting markers must directly touch the text without spaces. Bullet points can be added using the • character followed by a space. This formatter tool lets you preview exactly how your message will appear before sending it.
