Frequently asked questions
How do I write bold text in WhatsApp?
Put an asterisk before and after the text like *text*. This tool adds the markers automatically when you click Bold and shows a live preview.
What are the WhatsApp formatting codes?
Bold *text*, italic _text_, strikethrough ~text~, and monospace with three backticks before and after. They work in WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business.
Does formatting work in broadcasts and templates?

Is my data safe?
