Character limits

Profile name 2 to 32 characters undocumented
Profile summary about 8 KB of text undocumented

Valve does not publish either limit. The summary limit is a byte size rather than a character count, which matters here: these styled characters take three or four bytes each instead of one, so you get far fewer of them than plain letters. Checked 2026-10-03 against Steam Support.

Worth knowing about Steam

Steam is one of the most permissive platforms for Unicode names. Two things to keep in mind: friends searching for your display name will have a harder time finding you, and the summary limit is measured in bytes, so a styled character costs several times what a plain one does.

Common questions

Can I use styled text in my Steam username?
No. The custom profile url accepts only a-z, 0-9, hyphen and underscore. Styled text works in the other fields listed above.
How much styled text fits in a Steam bio?
The limit is about 8 KB of text. Whatever the number, combining styles such as strikethrough and underline halve it, because each letter carries a second character and both are counted.
Are these Steam limits official?
0 of 2 are stated in Steam's own help pages; the rest are not documented and come from consistent third-party reports. The table above marks which is which. Limits change, so treat an undocumented number as a good estimate rather than a guarantee.
Why does it look different on someone else's phone?
Each device renders these characters with whatever font covers them. Where coverage is missing you get empty rectangles instead of letters, which is more common on older devices.
A note on screen readers

These styles are not fonts. They are separate Unicode characters that merely look like formatted letters, so a screen reader does not treat them as ordinary text: depending on the software they are spelled out character by character, announced by their technical names, or skipped altogether. Use them sparingly, and never for content that has to be understood. Full explanation.
