Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between reversing characters, words and lines?

Characters flips the entire string so the last letter comes first ('abc' becomes 'cba'). Words keeps each word readable but reverses their order ('hello world' becomes 'world hello'). Lines keeps each line intact but flips top to bottom.

Does it handle emoji and accented characters?

Yes. Character reversal splits on whole Unicode code points, so emoji, accented letters and other multi-byte characters stay intact instead of turning into broken symbols.

What is reversing text useful for?

Common uses include creating mirrored or backwards text for fun, reversing a list of lines, checking palindromes, building puzzles, and quickly flipping word order while editing.

Are Windows and Mac line endings supported in line mode?

Yes. Line mode recognizes CRLF, CR and LF endings, so text copied from any operating system reverses correctly.

Is my text private?

Yes. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is uploaded to a server.
