Formatting Cheat Sheet

What How (Syntax)
Bold *Message*
Italic _Message_
Strikethrough ~Message~
Monospace ```Message```
Bulleted List • Message or - Message
Numbered List 1. Message
Quote Block > Message

1. Emphasize with Bold

Make your key points impossible to miss. Wrap important words in asterisks (*) to make them bold. Ideal for headlines, deadlines, and sales offers.

2. Add Style with Italics

Use underscores (_) around your text to italicize it. This formatting is perfect for adding emphasis to specific words, movie titles, or book names.

3. Corrections with Strikethrough

Need to show a price drop or a correction? Use tildes (~) to cross out text. For example, writing ~Old Price~ creates a visual strike line.

4. Use Monospace for Codes

To send coupon codes, snippets of programming code, or unique identifiers, use three backticks (```) to apply a "typewriter" font style that stands out.

5. Organize with Lists

While WhatsApp doesn't have a list button, you can simulate lists by starting lines with a hyphen (-) or an asterisk (*) followed by a space. Numbered lists work simply by typing "1. ".

6. Highlight with Quotes

Use the greater-than symbol (>) followed by a space to create a blockquote style. This is excellent for sharing customer testimonials or replying to specific text parts.

7. Combine Styles

You can mix formatting! For example, use `*_text_*` to create text that is both bold and italic. Just remember to close the tags in the reverse order you opened them.

8. Emojis and Spacing

Don't forget emojis! They act as visual anchors. Also, break up "walls of text" with double line breaks to ensure your messages are readable on mobile screens.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Formatter for WhatsApp free to use?
Yes, Formatter for WhatsApp is 100% free to use for personal and commercial purposes. There are no hidden fees, subscriptions, or limits on how many messages you can format.
Is my text data secure and private?
Absolutely. Formatter for WhatsApp runs entirely in your web browser (client-side). We do not have a backend server, which means your text messages, codes, and data are never sent to us or stored anywhere. Your privacy is guaranteed by design.
Why can't I change font colors or families?
WhatsApp uses a lightweight text formatting system based on Markdown. It only supports specific styles like Bold, Italic, Strikethrough, and Monospace. It does not support changing font colors (like red or blue) or font families (like Times New Roman), so we cannot generate those styles.
Can I use this for WhatsApp Business or Broadcasts?
Yes! The formatted text generated by Formatter for WhatsApp works perfectly on WhatsApp Messenger, WhatsApp Business, WhatsApp Web, and Desktop apps. It is especially useful for formatting professional Broadcast messages, marketing announcements, and customer replies.
