Fonts by PlatformText Tools for Every Social App

Font tools written for one app each — Instagram, TikTok, Discord, WhatsApp, LinkedIn and the rest — covering what that platform actually allows in names, bios and posts.

Every platform treats text differently. Instagram accepts styled letters in the Name field but not the @username. LinkedIn has no formatting of its own, so Unicode is the only way to bold a post. Discord has real markdown and Unicode on top. Slack has formatting in messages but none in display names. Knowing the rule for your app matters more than knowing the alphabet.

Each page here documents the character limits, which fields accept styling and where search will stop matching your words, then offers styles that fit those rules.

The Rule That Applies Almost Everywhere

Two fields, two different answers.

  • Display name or profile name: styled Unicode almost always works
  • Handle or @username: letters, digits and underscores only, on nearly every platform
  • Bios and posts: styled text works but is not matched by search or hashtags
  • Character limits count styled letters as two, so a 30-character field holds about 15

Styling Without Losing Reach

The cost of styled text is discoverability. Platform search, hashtags and mentions all match plain characters, so a fully styled bio becomes invisible to the people looking for it. The approach that works everywhere is one styled display line for personality and plain text for the words you want found. Each platform page shows where that line falls for that app.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I style my @username?

On virtually no platform. Handles allow letters, digits and underscores. Style the display name instead.

Why does my styled bio not show in search?

Search matches plain characters. Styled letters are different code points.

Do styled names work on both app and web?

Yes. They are characters, not formatting, so they render on every client.

Will people on old phones see boxes?

Letters render everywhere. Only recent emoji can fall back to a box.

Is it free?

Yes.
