TextArray vs Messletters

Updated September 1, 2026

Messletters sells itself in one line — "Fancy Font Generator 😍 Stylish Text, Emoji and Symbols!" — and delivers exactly that: type a sentence, get it back in a long column of styles to copy. Around it sit collections of emoji, emoticons, symbols and text art, and the interface is offered in roughly fourteen languages.

TextArray is the same idea rebuilt as separate tools. Each style is its own page with its own options and its own explanation, the interface is in eighteen languages, and the styling tools sit beside several hundred that have nothing to do with styling.

Where Messletters is strong

  • One box, one paste, every style at once — hard to beat for picking a look quickly.
  • Emoji, emoticon and symbol collections alongside the generator.
  • An interface translated into around fourteen languages.

The trade is speed against control. Messletters answers "show me options"; TextArray answers "give me exactly this" — Zalgo at a chosen intensity and direction, small caps after the accents are folded, cursive with the characters that have no cursive form left readable. And because the tools chain, a two- or three-step look is one page instead of three copy-pastes.

The other difference is what the site does with what you type. TextArray runs every tool inside your browser tab, states it on every page and fails its own build if any page would request anything from a third party. Messletters states nothing on the subject, so this comparison does not claim anything about it — but it is worth knowing which side of that line a tool sits on before pasting something you would rather keep.

FAQ

Which has more styles?
They are close on the classic Unicode styles. TextArray adds ones Messletters does not, including regional-indicator letters, braille, runes, Morse and a configurable Zalgo.
Does TextArray work in my language?
The interface is in eighteen languages. The styling itself is Unicode, so it works on any script that has a styled form — most cover the Latin alphabet only, which is why several tools fold accents first.
Why does styled text sometimes show as boxes?
Because the receiving device has no font covering that Unicode block. It is a property of the characters, not of the tool that produced them, so it happens equally with either site.
