Question 1

What's the difference between character and word reverse?

Accepted Answer

Character reverse flips every letter, so 'hello' becomes 'olleh'. Word reverse keeps each word intact but flips the order, so 'hello world' becomes 'world hello'. Doing a palindrome check? Use character. Rearranging a sentence? Use word.

Question 2

Does it handle emoji and Chinese properly?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A lot of online reversers just call JavaScript's built-in reverse on a string, which splits multi-byte characters in half — your 👨‍👩‍👧 turns into broken glyphs and Chinese characters can come out wrong. This one does grapheme-level splitting, so everything survives the round trip.

Question 3

Can I reverse multiple lines at once?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Each line reverses on its own, and the line breaks stay where you put them. Handy for flipping a list, CSV rows, or log lines without merging everything into one blob.

Question 4

Does my text get uploaded anywhere?

Accepted Answer

No. It all happens in your browser — your text never leaves the page. Safe to use with private messages, work notes, or anything you'd rather not send to a random website.

Question 5

Is there a size limit?

Accepted Answer

No hard cap. Since the work runs locally, it's really bounded by your device. A few thousand characters is instant; even a long essay finishes without you noticing.
