## About

### Cross out text anywhere

This generator adds combining Unicode marks to each character — a line through the middle for strikethrough, a diagonal slash, a tilde, or a line above or below. Because the mark attaches to the letter itself, the effect survives copy-paste into apps that have no strikethrough button, including Instagram, WhatsApp, Discord, Twitter/X and most forums.

### Six crossing styles to choose from

Get strikethrough, slashed, tilde-strike, underline, double-underline and overline versions at once. Tap any result to copy it. Everything happens locally in your browser — no upload, no signup and no limits — so it's ideal for edits, price drops, jokes and stylised bios.

## FAQ

### How do I cross out text?

Type your text and copy the 'Strikethrough' result. It uses a combining Unicode line, so the strike stays when you paste it into chats, captions or bios.

### Does strikethrough text work on Instagram and WhatsApp?

Yes. Because the crossing mark is a Unicode character attached to each letter, it pastes correctly into Instagram, WhatsApp, Discord, Twitter/X and most apps that lack a formatting button.

### Can I underline text too?

Yes — the tool also produces underline, double-underline and overline styles alongside the strikethrough versions.

### Is it free?

Yes, completely free with no signup or limits, running entirely in your browser.
