    A little wider than a hair space. It separates two marks without a normal space.

  • No-break space

A hidden character is in the text and has no drawing. People use it for a bio line that looks empty, and sometimes for a game name that looks blank.

How to use it

  1. Pick a character from the list.
  2. Press Copy.
  3. Paste it into a bio or a name field.
  4. If saving fails, the game or app blocks that use.

A blank game name

Some players paste a Braille blank into the name field. Some games allow it and some block it or punish it. Read the game’s rules. This page does not suggest breaking them.

A blank line in a bio

Instagram removes a truly empty line. A hidden character may keep it. If it disappears after saving, the account stripped the character.

FAQ

Why do I see nothing after copying?

Because the character has no shape. Paste it between two words, or on its own line, to see the gap.
