A font generator for bios, display names and game nicknames. Type once, then tap any style to copy it.
Where fancy text works
Fancy text is made of ordinary characters, so it goes wherever text goes: display names, bios, posts, comments and game nicknames.
- Names and bios: yes. Most apps take styled letters in your display name and your bio.
- @usernames and handles: no. Usernames only allow plain letters, numbers and a few symbols like dots and underscores. No site can change that.
- Older phones may show boxes. Each phone draws these letters with its own fonts. Phones from the last few years show nearly all of them. Older ones, especially Android 9 and earlier, may show an empty box instead of some letters, and so may the phones of the people reading your bio.
- Screen readers struggle. Many skip styled letters or read them out one by one. Keep anything important, like how to reach you, in plain text.
- Some apps trim heavy styles. Glitch text with lots of marks can be cut short or blocked.
We’re testing every style on real phones, old and new, and in the apps people paste into. Until that’s done, we don’t label any style as safe.
How to copy and paste
On iPhone: tap a style and you’ll see “copied”. Open the app, touch and hold the name or bio field, then tap Paste.
On Android: tap a style. Your phone may buzz, and you’ll see “copied”. Open the app, touch and hold the field, then tap Paste.
If an app’s own browser blocks copying, we select the text for you instead. Press and hold it, then tap Copy.
Tap ♡ to keep a style in Favourites. Styles you copy also show up under Recent. Both stay on this device.
It isn’t really a font
These styles aren’t fonts. Each one swaps your letters for look-alike characters from Unicode, the list of characters every phone and computer shares. 𝓜 is one character, just like M. That’s why styled text pastes anywhere, and why it looks the same for everyone whose phone has those characters.
It also means some styles miss a few letters. Unicode has no small capital X, for example, and only some letters come as subscripts. Where a style has no version of a letter or a number, we leave it plain rather than show a box.
Accents stay on
Type ã, ç, é or ñ and the accent stays on the styled letter. On a few styles the mark can sit a little off, depending on the phone.
Private by design
Everything happens on your phone.Everything happens on your tablet.Everything happens on your computer. Your text isn’t sent anywhere, there are no ads, and the page keeps working in airplane mode after your first visit. Here’s how we keep it private.
