Need a raised 2 for x² or m²?
Quick answer: Need superscript 2? Tap ² below. It copies as Unicode (U+00B2), so it stays raised in chat and Docs. Use the same board for ⁰–⁹ and footnote marks. Word Format → Superscript will not survive WhatsApp; these characters will.

Superscript numbers copy paste: full ⁰–⁹ list
Each button copies one digit. Use this raised numbers row for units and footnotes. Code points match the U2070 chart (and the names list). ⁴ ⁵ ⁶ show up less often than ², but the paste is the same: one tap, then into the box.
| Digit | Character | Code point |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | ⁰ | U+2070 |
| 1 | ¹ | U+00B9 |
| 2 | ² | U+00B2 |
| 3 | ³ | U+00B3 |
| 4 | ⁴ | U+2074 |
| 5 | ⁵ | U+2075 |
| 6 | ⁶ | U+2076 |
| 7 | ⁷ | U+2077 |
| 8 | ⁸ | U+2078 |
| 9 | ⁹ | U+2079 |
Footnote marks ¹ ² ³ in plain text
Footnotes use the same raised set, not lowered chemistry digits. Tap ¹ ² ³ above, paste next to the word, and the mark travels with the sentence. Do not mix ₂ into an exponent; that code point sits below the line.
Ctrl + Shift + = in Word only changes how that app draws a normal 2 (Microsoft’s Word steps). Paste into a message and the 2 often drops flat. ² is a different character, so WhatsApp and Docs keep it up.
Need more than one character?
Need a longer string than superscript 2? Type x2 or E=mc2 on the raised-text converter and copy once. Formula mode lifts only the digits.
