How does strikethrough text work?

Most social apps do not have a strikethrough button. This generator adds a Unicode combining character after every letter, such as the Combining Long Stroke Overlay (U+0336). Your device draws that line through the letter before it, so the text looks crossed out wherever you paste it.

How to use the Strikethrough Text Generator?

  1. Type or paste your text into the box.
  2. Pick a style: strikethrough, short stroke, slash, underline, double underline or overline.
  3. Click Copy and paste the styled text anywhere.

Frequently Asked Questions

Type your text above, copy the strikethrough style and paste it into your post, comment or bio.
Yes. Use the Underline or Double underline style. They use combining Unicode characters, so no formatting support is needed.
Each letter gets its own line segment, so some fonts show small gaps. This depends on the font of the app you paste into.
Combining characters may be read aloud or ignored by screen readers and can make text harder to search, so use them for decoration only.
