How to Use Bold, Italics and Strikethrough in WhatsApp Messages

WhatsApp is one of the most popular communication apps in the world, with millions of users using it to chat with friends and family members from all around the globe. While the app may seem simple and straightforward, there are a few tricks to make your messages stand out. One such trick is using bold, italics, and strikethrough in your texts. In this article, we’ll show you how to use these features in your WhatsApp messages.

Using Bold in WhatsApp Messages

To format your text in bold, simply add an asterisk (*) on both sides of the text you want to highlight. For example, typing *Hello* will result in the word “Hello” appearing in bold in your message. This feature can be helpful when you want to emphasize a particular word or phrase in your message.

Using Italics in WhatsApp Messages

Using italics is similar to using bold, but instead of using an asterisk, you need to add an underscore (_) on both sides of the text you want to italicize. For example, typing _Hello_ will result in the word “Hello” appearing in italics in your message. This feature can be valuable for adding emphasis or drawing attention to specific parts of your message.

Using Strikethrough in WhatsApp Messages

To use the strikethrough feature in your messages, you need to add a tilde (~) on both sides of the text you want to strike out. For example, typing ~Hello~ will result in the word “Hello” appearing with a line through it. This feature can be useful for indicating that you have changed your mind or for adding humor to your messages.

Wrapping Up

In conclusion, using bold, italics, and strikethrough in your WhatsApp messages can help you better convey your message and make it stand out. Whether you are emphasizing a specific word, drawing attention to a particular phrase, or adding humor to your message, these formatting features can be beneficial in a wide range of situations. The next time you’re sending a message on WhatsApp, try out these features to make your messages more eye-catching and engaging.

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
