About the big font on VKontakte

In order to make the font larger on our page, we use the heading buttons in the editing panel - H1, H2, etc. Another option would be to use the well-known CAPS LOCK key, but we should not forget that such flashy letters can both attract and repel visitors to our pages.

We've covered the main points. All that remains is to try and imagine. Good luck!

On a smartphone

How to change the font in VK on your phone? This can be done through the settings of the official application in the “Basic” section. But here you can only change the text size by choosing one of three options: small, normal or large.

By the way! The option to change text size is only available in Android settings. On an iPhone, you cannot increase or decrease it through the application.

In the official Google application store you can find many applications that allow you to write in an unusual font not only on VKontakte, but also on other social networks. Some of the most popular programs are:

  • Stylish Text is an application that changes the design of text on your smartphone in a few clicks. You can use ready-made themes or use the editor. The new style will become the design of the Android interface, as well as all installed applications.
  • Text Converter converts text into unusual characters. Built-in conversion types and a symbolic keyboard will simplify the task of creating a unique message or inscription.

Any user can change the font for VK online. The procedure is simple and does not take much time even for beginners. There are also ready-made styles available that other people have previously created and shared. But the Stylish add-on allows you to feel like a designer and create your own and unique design theme for any website.

How to write in bold or other font in VK

Many of us have our own VK page. Here we communicate with friends, read the news, listen to our favorite music, and watch the next spectacular video. In conversations with other users, we may notice that the messages of our interlocutor are written in bold or other non-standard font. At the same time, such a font is not available in the VK functionality, and how our interlocutor did it is unknown. Below we will reveal this secret and figure out how to write in bold or another font on the VK social network, and what we need for this.

Bold font in VK as a software vulnerability

A couple of years ago, VKontakte functionality had a software vulnerability that allowed you to write messages in bold (and not only) to another user. A message form was created and the code was inserted several times. The “Subject” field appeared, in which the user typed a message that was supposed to be displayed in bold on VK. Then the codes were deleted, and some kind of space was put in their place. After that, this message with bold font was sent to the recipient (read how to find out who viewed our posts in VK in our material).

Since the VK team is reviewing all relevant news, they have found and eliminated this vulnerability. Now the functionality of this and other similar holes in the VK code is not available to users. What to do?

Use services to change text to Unicode

You can write in VK in bold or another font using a number of special Internet services that use the Unicode standard. With their help, you can get a variety of options for your text, including bold, italic, gothic and other fonts.

You must work with these tools as follows:

  1. Go to such a resource;
  2. Insert into a special field (usually on the left) the desired text that you want to display in a different font;
  3. On the right, select the desired font option;
  4. Mark the result obtained with the mouse cursor, right-click it, select “Copy”;
  5. Go to the desired field for text in VK, click on it with the cursor, and click “Insert”.

Among such services that allow you to write in bold on VK, we highlight the following:

ServiceDescription
1lingojam.comThis Chinese resource has a special tool for modifying text into bold font. Just go to the resource, type the text you need on the left, and get the transformed result on the right. The service works much better with the Latin alphabet than with the Cyrillic alphabet, but the Cyrillic options here are quite diverse.
2boldtext.ioThe service is specially created to receive your inscription in bold online. Go to the resource, enter your text in the appropriate field, and view the result below. To load more results, click on the “load more fonts” button.

The resource lingojam.com offers you various forms of writing fonts.
Using these services, you can write VKontakte with various types of fonts in different languages. However, they work worse with the Cyrillic alphabet than with the Latin alphabet.
