Reverse text

Reverse text by characters, word order, or line order — instantly, with one-click copy. Emoji-safe, free, private.

Reverse

Your text never leaves your browser — reversal happens on your device.

Flip text three ways — spelled backwards, words in reverse order, or lines flipped top-to-bottom — instantly as you type, emoji-safe, with one-click copy.

How to reverse text

  1. Paste or type in the top box.
  2. Pick a mode: Characters, Word order, or Line order — the result updates live.
  3. Copy the output.

Three reversals, three different jobs

Characters is the classic backwards-text effect — usernames, puzzle answers, novelty posts, and the quick way to read something you photographed in a mirror. Word order produces grammatical chaos with readable words (“was it that how” style) — beloved of word games and the occasional Yoda impression, but also genuinely useful for reversing comma-separated sequences. Line order is the quietly practical one: a log file or chat export that arrived newest-first becomes chronological in one click, and a ranked list flips to countdown order.

The palindrome check, while you’re here

Type a phrase and switch to Characters: if the output reads the same as the input (ignoring spaces and punctuation), you’ve got a palindrome — “never odd or even” survives the trip. For counting the words you’re flipping, the word counter runs the same live-as-you-type way; to clean text before reversing, the remove line breaks and case converter tools chain naturally.

Private by design

Everything happens in your browser as you type — nothing is transmitted, logged, or stored.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between the three modes?
Characters spells everything backwards ("hello" → "olleh"). Word order keeps each word readable but reverses their sequence ("one two three" → "three two one"). Line order flips a list top-to-bottom. Characters and word order work per line, so multi-line text keeps its line structure.
Do emoji survive reversal?
Yes — reversal works on whole Unicode code points, so emoji and non-Latin characters stay intact rather than turning into broken symbols. One honest limit: letters carrying separate combining accents can end up with the accent on the wrong letter; precomposed characters (é as one character) are fine.
Is reversed text how mirror writing works?
Reversing character order is half of it — a true mirror also flips each glyph, which plain text can't do. But for reading text seen in a mirror or photographed through glass, reversing the characters usually makes it legible again.
What do people use reversed line order for?
Turning newest-first logs or chat exports into chronological order (and vice versa) — flip the lines once instead of scrolling backwards forever.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No — the reversal runs entirely in your browser.
