Frequently asked questions

What is zalgo text?

Zalgo text is normal text decorated with lots of stacked Unicode combining marks above, through, and below each character. The piled-up marks create the cursed, glitchy, corrupted look.

Will zalgo text work on Discord, Instagram, and TikTok?

Usually. Because it is ordinary Unicode text, it pastes into most bios, captions, and chats. Some apps trim or collapse very heavy combining marks, so a lower intensity is the safer choice when an app limits it.

How do I make it more or less cursed?

Use the intensity control next to the input. A lower setting adds just a few marks for a subtle glitch, while the highest setting piles them on for a fully corrupted look.

Can I turn zalgo text back to normal?

Yes. The marks are separate combining characters layered onto your letters, so stripping them or retyping your text brings back the original — the underlying letters are never changed.

Is my text sent anywhere?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser, so whatever you type stays on your device and nothing is uploaded to a server.
