Frequently asked questions

Can YouTube descriptions use bold or italic markup?

YouTube doesn't render HTML or markdown in descriptions. This tool generates Unicode styled code points (𝗔𝗕𝗖, 𝘈𝘉𝘊) that look bold or italic across web and mobile YouTube clients without any special tags.

How long can my YouTube description be?

Up to 5,000 characters. Only the first ~140 characters show above the "…more" fold on a watch page, so keep keywords, links and the strongest hook in those first two lines.
