How to use

Paste or type your text, then select Transform. A strikethrough mark is added to every character, including spaces, and the result stays in this browser tab.

Example

Input: “Mistake”. Output: “M̶i̶s̶t̶a̶k̶e̶”. The line comes from a combining mark placed after each character, so it works anywhere text does.

Uses

Use strikethrough for humorous corrections, before-and-after edits, price markdowns, and showing what changed in a sentence without deleting it.

Limitations

The line is a combining character, not formatting, so every character including spaces carries a mark. Screen readers still read the underlying words, which is good, but dense strikethrough can be hard to read visually on some platforms.

Local privacy

Your input and result are processed locally on this device. Convertca does not put tool text in URLs, analytics, or saved histories.

Task-specific guidance

Strikethrough reads best on short phrases. For long redactions, pair it with the find and replace tool to rewrite the passage instead.

FAQ

Does it work on emoji? Yes. The mark attaches to the whole emoji as one piece, so multi-part emoji like families and professions stay intact.

Verified examples
