Reverse text by character, word or line

Three different things people mean by β€œreverse”: the characters backwards, the words in the opposite order, or the lines flipped end to end. Pick the one you meant.

Reverse by

The whole text backwards, last character first.

How it works

01

Characters are reversed by symbol, not by storage

Reversing a string the obvious way tears emoji and some accented characters into broken halves, because they are stored as two units and reversing swaps them. This reverses by code point, so β€œabπŸ‘‹β€ comes back as β€œπŸ‘‹ba” rather than as two replacement characters.

02

Word reversal keeps each line intact

Word order is reversed within each line rather than across the whole document, so a paragraph keeps its shape instead of collapsing into one long run. The words themselves stay readable β€” only their order changes.

03

Line reversal is the one people usually want

Flipping the order of lines turns a newest-first list into oldest-first, which is the practical use β€” reversing a log, a changelog or an exported list without sorting it by anything.

What it does

Three modes, one click apart

Characters, words or lines, switching instantly so you can see which one you actually meant.

Unicode-safe

Emoji, accented letters and non-Latin scripts survive reversal instead of breaking apart.

Nothing uploaded

It is a string operation running in your browser. No request is made anywhere.

Practical advice

Getting a better result

  • To flip a chronological list without re-sorting it, use line mode β€” it preserves the entries exactly and only changes their order.
  • Reversing characters twice gives you the original back. Reversing words or lines twice does too.
  • Reversed text is not encryption or obfuscation. It is trivially readable and should not be used to hide anything.

Questions

Things people ask

Why do other tools break my emoji when reversing?

Because they reverse the string one storage unit at a time, and an emoji occupies two. Swapping those two halves produces an invalid character. This tool reverses whole symbols, so emoji come through intact.

Does reversing lines sort them?

No. It flips the existing order and nothing else β€” the first line becomes the last. If you want them ordered rather than flipped, the text sorter does that.
