Which blank character to use
Not every blank works everywhere. Some apps strip normal spaces at the start or end of a text, so the tool offers five types:
| Character | Code | Usually works for |
|---|---|---|
| Hangul Filler | U+3164 | Game nicknames, WhatsApp names |
| Braille Blank | U+2800 | Instagram bios, captions, centering text |
| Zero-Width Space | U+200B | Joining words with no visible gap |
| No-Break Space | U+00A0 | Keeping words on one line |
| Invisible Separator | U+2063 | Tests and "empty" messages |
How to center an Instagram bio
- Choose Braille Blank (U+2800).
- Copy 5 to 10 of them.
- Paste them at the start of each bio line until the text sits in the middle.
How to add a gap in a game nickname
- Choose Hangul Filler (U+3164).
- Set the amount to 1 to 3.
- Copy and paste it between the symbols of your nickname.
How to send an empty WhatsApp message
Copy a Braille Blank or a Hangul Filler and send it. WhatsApp won't send a message made only of normal spaces, but it accepts these.
Use blanks with good intentions
Invisible characters are sometimes used to sneak past filters or spread spam. Use them for layout and style, never to impersonate someone or break platform rules.
