How to use

Is strikethrough text different from Markdown strikethrough?

Yes. Markdown strikethrough uses tildes and only renders in Markdown-aware apps. Unicode strikethrough works everywhere.

Does strikethrough text work in SMS messages?

Yes. SMS supports Unicode, so the combining strikethrough characters display correctly on most phones.

Can I apply strikethrough to numbers and symbols?

Yes. The combining character applies to any Unicode character, not just letters.

Does strikethrough text work on Instagram and Facebook?

Yes. Both render Unicode combining strikethrough, so crossed-out text shows correctly in bios, captions, and comments.

How do I remove the strikethrough?

Retype the words or delete the combining strikethrough characters; the underlying letters stay intact as plain text.
