Using Bold, Italics & Strikethrough (Android or iOS)For both Android and iOS devices, WhatsApp lets you format your messages with italics, bold, and strikethrough text just by typing special characters before and after the text in your message. Here's how it's done:Type an underscore ( _ ) on either side of a word or phrase to italicize it. Example: _word_. Type an asterisk ( * ) on either side of a word or phrase to make it bold. Example: *word*. Type a tilde ( ~ ) on either side of a word or phrase to cross out the text. Example: ~word~. WhatsApp for iOS doesn't display text formatting as you type, but messages show up in their formatted state when they're sent. Android users will get a live preview of the formatted text as they type, which makes it a little easier to see which format is most appropriate.
Using the Context Menu & MonospacingIf you're using an Android device, you have an extra option for formatting text in WhatsApp. If you type three grave accents ( ` ) on both sides of a word or phrase, the text will turn into a monospaced font that uses a fixed width for all of the characters. While you don't have this option on the iPhone, you can still format texts with this font using the method below.In addition to this extra manual formatting option, both Android and iOS users can also format text with a simple context menu. Just long-press on your target word, and either tap the three-dot button on the right side (Android) or "BIU" icon (iOS) from the menu that appears, and you'll be able to choose "Monospace," in addition to the other formats available. As you can see, formatting text messages is extremely easy in WhatsApp. But before you start typing all your messages in bold, we'd like to hear your thoughts.
