Glitch text generator
Same tool as our glitch font generator — "text" and "font" are the two names people search for this effect, so here it is under both.
Controls the density of accent marks stacked above each character.
Controls the density of strikethrough-style marks. These are the marks most likely to render as boxes on old devices — keep this low if you need the text to be widely readable.
Controls the density of marks stacked below each character.
Style mockup, not a live embed — actual rendering can vary by device and app version.
"Glitch font" or "glitch text" — does it matter?
Not mechanically, no. There is no font file here — the effect comes from stacking Unicode combining marks onto normal characters, which is a text transformation, not a typeface. "Glitch font generator" and "glitch text generator" are just two different phrasings people search for the exact same thing, so this page and the homepage run the identical engine.
If you're specifically after copy-paste output rather than an image, this is the right page: type above, drag the three intensity sliders, and press Copy text.

Frequently asked questions
Is "glitch text" different from "glitch font"?
No — same underlying technique (stacked Unicode combining marks), different common name. This tool covers both.
Can I copy this glitch text into a text file?
Yes, it's plain Unicode text and works in any app that accepts text input, including plain .txt files.
Why does my glitch text look different when I paste it somewhere else?
Combining marks are rendered by the receiving app's font and text engine, so spacing can shift slightly between apps and devices — this is normal.
