Whatsapp is a simple chatting app that enables you quickly compose texts, share images and documents, make audio and video calls. But did you also know that you can compose well formatted text messages within Whatsapp despite not having a fully blown rich text editor? You can make bulleted lists, numbered lists, make text bold, italic and so on.
In this article, I am going to show you some of Whatsapp’s text formatting shortcuts you can use to enrich your text messages. Alright, let’s dive into it.
Format | How |
---|---|
| – Message |
| 1. Message |
Block Quote | > Message |
Inline code | `Message` |
Bold | *Message* |
Italic | _Message_ |
~Message~ | |
Monospace | ```Message``` |
So next time you’re composing your Whatsapp text messages, tryout these formatting shortcuts. I personally like the Bold shortcut. It comes in handy when adding a heading or title for your Whatsapp message. This makes it easy for your audience to quickly understand what the long test is about. You can also also use bulleted list for listing items, people’s names and so forth.
