Compare the styles: the main square version is at the top, other variations below it.
Press Copy next to the style you like.
Paste it into your bio, caption, post, comment or chat.

How square text works

Square letters come from Unicode's Enclosed Alphanumeric Supplement block. Squared Latin capitals 🄰 to 🅉 start at U+1F130, and negative (black) squared capitals 🅰 to 🆉 start at U+1F170. Unicode only defines squared forms for capital letters, so lowercase input is shown as capitals, and there are no squared digits.

Four of the black squared letters, 🅰️ 🅱️ 🅾️ and 🅿️, are also emoji (blood types and parking), so most phones draw them in red. The "emoji block letters" style adds the emoji variation selector to those four so they appear in colour.

Frequently asked questions

What is square text?

Square text uses Unicode squared and negative squared Latin capitals from the Enclosed Alphanumeric Supplement block, so every letter appears inside a box.

Why is my text in capitals?

Unicode only has squared forms for capital letters A-Z, so lowercase letters are converted to their capital box version.

Why are some letters red on my phone?

🅰️ 🅱️ 🅾️ and 🅿️ are also emoji (blood types and parking), so many phones draw them in red. The emoji block letter style deliberately uses those emoji forms.

Are numbers supported?

Unicode has no squared digits, so numbers stay normal in square styles. Try the bubble text generator for circled numbers, or the emoji letters generator for keycap digits.

Where does square text work?

In most apps that support emoji: Instagram, TikTok, X, Facebook, Discord and messaging apps.

Is square text accessible?

Screen readers usually read each box letter by its full Unicode name, so use it for short, decorative text only.
