FAQ
Why doesn’t Signal show real bold?
Signal deliberately parses no markup — formatting exists only via the selection menu (select text → B/I/…). Pasted *asterisks* would show literally, so this converter produces the cleanest possible plain text instead, with • lists and readable table cards. Tested July 2026.
How do I style words in Signal anyway?
After pasting, select a word or sentence in the message field and choose Bold, Italic, Strikethrough or Monospace from the toolbar that appears.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser — your text is never sent anywhere, stored, or logged. We count anonymous, cookie-free page views and conversion events (event names only — never content, never identifiers) to see which tools are useful.
Does it only work with ChatGPT output?
No — it converts any Markdown. Output from Copilot, Mistral, DeepSeek, Perplexity or any other AI works, and so does Markdown from READMEs, Notion exports, or your own notes. Research citations (footnotes like [^1] with a source list) are converted too.
What happens to tables?
Chat apps have no tables, and monospace grids wrap badly on phones. Each table row becomes a compact, readable card — the row title first, then one "Label: value" line per column. Small numeric tables stay as aligned grids where the app supports monospace.
