How strikethrough text works
Your letters stay ordinary. The generator adds a combining character after each one, and the app draws it over the letter before it. Strikethrough uses U+0336 (combining long stroke overlay), Slash Through uses U+0338, Underline uses U+0332 and Double Underline uses U+0333, all from the Combining Diacritical Marks block.
Every character gets a mark, including spaces, digits and punctuation, which keeps the line running across the text. Line breaks get none. The text copies as plain characters, so the lines come along with it and no formatting is needed.
Limits and differences between apps
All four styles have a low box rating, because the marks are in default fonts on current systems. The ratings come from macOS font checks and block coverage, with no device tests. A few apps still drop combining marks, and fonts place the line at slightly different heights, so a line can look lower, higher or broken in places.
Each marked character counts as two code points. A field with a length limit fills up about twice as fast, and no platform source says how combined characters are counted. Discord usernames allow only a-z, 0-9, underscore and period, so marks are rejected there, while display names accept special characters. A screen reader may announce each mark after its letter. For a price or a date that someone must read, also write it in plain text.
Questions
How do I cross out text where there is no strikethrough option?
Type your text, tap Strikethrough, and paste the result. The line is made of combining characters, so it stays with the text.
What is the difference between Strikethrough and Slash Through?
Strikethrough draws a horizontal line through the middle of each letter. Slash Through draws a diagonal line. Underline and Double Underline sit below the letters.
Why is the line missing or broken in some apps?
Some apps ignore combining marks, and fonts position them differently. Pick another style or check how the app shows it.
Does it use more of my character limit?
Yes. Every character is followed by a mark, so the code point count roughly doubles.
Are the four styles equally likely to work?
They share a low rating, because the marks come from the same block. The only variation is how each app draws the line.
