Reverse Text

Flip text backwards by character, reverse the word order, or turn a list upside down.

Everything runs in your browser, so even long lists stay private and the tool works with the network switched off.

How to use

  1. 1Paste your text into the box.
  2. 2Choose what to reverse — the characters, the order of the words, or the order of the lines.
  3. 3Copy the reversed result.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the three modes?

Reversing characters turns 'hello world' into 'dlrow olleh'. Reversing words gives 'world hello'. Reversing lines flips the order of a list from top to bottom without touching the lines themselves.

Does it handle emoji correctly?

Yes. Reversal works on complete Unicode code points rather than raw code units, so emoji and other characters outside the basic plane are not split in half.

What is this useful for?

Reversing line order is genuinely handy for flipping chronological logs or lists. Character reversal is mostly for puzzles, testing text rendering, and checking palindromes.

Will Hindi or Tamil text reverse properly?

Character reversal works on code points, but Indic scripts combine consonants and vowel signs into single visual clusters, so reversing characters will scramble those clusters. Word and line reversal work perfectly.

Can I use this to write mirrored text for a design?

Reversing the characters gives you the text backwards, but the letters themselves are not mirrored — that is a font and rendering effect, not a text one. For a true mirror image, flip the rendered text in an image editor.

Does reversing lines also reverse the text on each line?

No. The three modes are separate: reversing lines changes only the order of the lines, leaving each line's contents intact. Run it twice in different modes if you want both.
