What is an invisible character?
An invisible character is a real Unicode character that shows up as empty space. Apps and games usually reject a name or message made only of normal spaces, because they trim spaces automatically — but they accept these characters, so you can create a blank name, an empty message, or extra spacing in a bio or caption.
Which one should I use?
- Hangul Filler (U+3164) — the most widely accepted blank character for usernames and game names.
- Braille Pattern Blank (U+2800) — looks like a space and is rarely removed; good for blank messages and line spacing.
- Zero Width Space (U+200B) — takes up no width at all; useful for breaking links and hashtags.
Every app filters characters differently and rules change, so if one character is removed or rejected, simply try the next one in the list.
Find and remove hidden characters
Text copied from websites, PDFs or chat apps can contain hidden characters that break code, spreadsheets, passwords or search. Paste the text into the detector to see exactly which hidden characters it contains, then clean it with one click.
