Bubble Text Generator

The Bubble text generator converts letters and numbers into circled Unicode characters (Ⓑⓤⓑⓑⓛⓔ) that resemble clean, round badges or stickers. Copy and paste this style instantly into Instagram numbered lists, TikTok countdowns, Discord role names, and social media step-by-step guides.

What is Bubble text?

Bubble text uses Enclosed Alphanumerics from the Unicode standard—characters where letters and digits are enclosed within perfect circles. Originally designed for typographic variety and list numbering, these circled characters create a badge-like or sticker appearance that stands out in plain-text environments. Each bubble character (Ⓐ, ①, Ⓩ) occupies consistent space and maintains its circular border across platforms.

Unlike creating graphics or using special fonts, this tool maps each standard character to its circled Unicode equivalent (A → Ⓐ, 1 → ①, z → ⓩ). Because these are actual Unicode characters rather than images or CSS effects, they work in Instagram captions, TikTok bios, Discord server names, Twitter posts, and messaging apps where traditional formatting isn't supported.

Accessibility & best practices

While bubble text creates clear visual distinction, screen readers may announce these characters as "circled Latin letter A" or "circled digit one" rather than simply reading the letter or number. For better accessibility and readability:

• Use bubble text for short labels, numbered steps (1-10), usernames, or section markers—typically 1-5 characters maximum
• Avoid writing full sentences or paragraphs in bubble style as it reduces readability
• Most modern devices support circled characters fully, but very old systems may display boxes
• Mix bubble characters with standard text to create visual hierarchy while keeping content accessible
• Bubble text works best for discrete markers and labels rather than flowing prose
