Question 1

Can I sort numerically instead of alphabetically?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and you probably want to for anything with numbers. Alphabetical sort treats '10' as less than '2' because it compares character by character. Numeric mode reads each line as a number and orders them properly — 1, 2, 10, 11 instead of 1, 10, 11, 2.

Question 2

Does it handle case-insensitive sorting?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Flip the case-insensitive toggle and 'apple' and 'Apple' are treated as the same string for ordering purposes. Useful when you don't want capital letters clustering at the top of the list.

Question 3

Can I shuffle lines randomly?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The random option uses a proper shuffle (not 'sort by random key', which is biased), so each line is equally likely to end up anywhere. Handy for picking a random sample from a list, or randomizing quiz questions.

Question 4

What happens to blank lines and duplicates?

Accepted Answer

Blank lines either bubble to the top (if you leave them) or get stripped — there's a toggle. Duplicates stay by default; use the dedupe tool first, or the sort tool alongside it, if you want them gone.

Question 5

Is my text sent anywhere?

Accepted Answer

No. Sorting runs in your browser, so pasted data — whether it's a list of customer emails, a CSV column, or anything sensitive — never leaves your device. No server is involved.
