WhatsApp is a popular messaging website that lets you chat with your friends. The app also lets you format text to make your text conversations interesting. You can format texts as bold, italic, and strikethrough.
WhatsApp text formatting works on mobile apps, desktop apps, and WhatsApp for web.
Format Texts As Bold, Italic, and Strikethrough On WhatsApp
To format text, you need to use the format given below:
- For bold: Add an asterisk (*) before and after the specifics words: e.g. *hello*
- For italics: Add an underscore (_) before and after the specifics words: e.g. _hello_
- For strikethrough: Add a tilde (~) before and after the specifics words: e.g. ~hello~

You can combine these options to use bold italic, bold strikethrough, and italic strikethrough. See the formats given below.
- For bold Italics: Add an asterisk (*_) before and after the specifics words: e.g. *_hello_*
- For italics strikethrough: Add an underscore (_~) before and after the specifics words: e.g. _~hello~_
- For strikethrough bold: Add a tilde (~*) before and after the specifics words: e.g. ~*hello*~
I hope, you can now easily format text. If you cannot see formatted text, you need to update your WhatsApp app. Official updates are now available in respective app stores.
