What is the correct format for listings in the app (IOS)?

[sassykzt]

I create all my listings on a laptop ( MacBook Pro)  I'm using Arial 14 font in the description part.  Whenever I try to update/ revise a listing on my phone (iOS 18.2.1 - latest update) I receive this:  Unsupported formatting. If you continue all current formatting will be removed.  Then at the bottom: Remove formatting and continue.  Should I remove the formatting?  What formatting is supported by the iOS app?

Woah, there is a LOT of HTML formatting behind the scenes in your descriptions.

Looks like you may be copy/pasting from an office doc? It's added in so much garbage code that you don't need.

I can see why the app wouldn't support all that formatting.

It's better to use TextEdit ('cause you said you're on a Mac) and under format menu select "make plain text" - and use that to type up your template and paste it into your listings.

Another option is when copy/pasting from Word or wherever, on the listing use Cmnd + SHIFT + V to past without formatting.

TY AGAIN!  You are the best!  Yes this was from a word doc. -- did this at my uni.    Skiing was great- cleared my head AND when I came back I was able to get into my business policies.

It was my pesky templates - way too much HTML code.  I just kept editing them.  They date back to 2015!   Deleted all of them and started fresh-- much better now and formatting now supported on the app.  Again,

so many thanks.
