However, this feature is not enabled by just clicking a button, instead it is hidden in the app and can be utilized by typing special characters.

As said above, this feature is hidden in the app and can be utilized by typing certain characters. In order to use this feature, you need to put the text which you want to see in Bold/Italic/Strikethrough pattern inside *asterisk sign while typing, the text you want to italicise_between underscores_ and words you want in strikethough ~ between tildes ~. In order to let you clearly understand this procedure, we have mentioned some points which will help you type the text in the said three patterns : #1 Make Text Bold If you want to make your text bold, you have to add asterisk sign to either side of your text like Khazin #2 Italicise The Text If you want to make your text italic, you have to add underscores either side like Khazin #3 Strikethrough Text If you want to make your strikethrough your text, you have to add tildes either side like ~Khazin~ From asterisks to tildes, you have to include them for doing the above three formatting to your text. However, you have to do it manually as this feature is hidden. These all features will work together, so you can enclose all three characters and formatting options to a word.
