Frequently asked questions
What is Zalgo text?
Text with many Unicode combining marks stacked on each letter, so it looks glitched, creepy or “cursed”. It is popular in memes, gaming names and horror-themed posts.
Will it work everywhere?
Most apps show it, but some limit or strip combining marks. Use Subtle for places with strict limits.
Can I remove Zalgo from text?
Yes — “Clean Zalgo text” strips all combining marks and gives back plain letters.
Is my text uploaded or stored?
No. Everything happens in your browser — your text and files never leave your device. A draft of what you type is kept only in this browser so you do not lose it.
Can I control how messy it looks?
Yes. Pick a preset from subtle to chaos, or set how many marks go above, through and below the letters yourself.
