Strikethrough Text Generator

Add strikethrough, overline or underline lines to text you can copy and paste.

About Strikethrough Text Generator

Cross out your text with Unicode combining marks that draw a line through, over or under every character. Because the marks travel with the letters as plain text, the effect pastes straight into Instagram, Facebook, X/Twitter, Discord and WhatsApp where real strikethrough isn't available.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does strikethrough text work?

A special Unicode combining line is attached to each character. The characters stay editable as text, but a line is drawn through them wherever they're displayed.

Why is there a gap in the line sometimes?

Spaces don't receive combining marks, so the line naturally breaks at spaces. That's expected behaviour for combining-character effects.
