About the X (Twitter) Text Formatter
X (formerly Twitter) does not let you bold or italicise text in a post. This free formatter converts your text to styled Unicode that pastes straight into a tweet, reply, or your bio and renders for everyone. Type, select the words to style, and copy.
How to use it
- Type or paste your tweet into the box.
- Select the words you want to style.
- Click Bold, Italic, or another style.
- Copy and paste it into your tweet, reply, or bio.
Why format your X (Twitter) text?
On a fast-moving timeline, a bold first line or an italic aside makes your tweet stop the scroll. Since X has no rich text, styled Unicode is the only way to add emphasis — and it works in your display name and bio too.
