One major problem with writing is that you CAN’T YELL LOOOOUUUDDD ENOUGH...!!! Well, Caps don’t do much, right? For this particular reason, WhatsApp allows you to bold the desired font and manipulate the tone of the message as per your wish.

For doing so, you can enclose the desired message within the asterisk/star symbol (*). Moreover, you can transform your message into italics and strikethrough by imprisoning the text in underscore (_) and tilt ease (~) respectively.

2. Font Face
