Reverse Text
Reverse characters, word order, or each word’s letters — live as you type. Everything runs in your browser.
Common uses
- Making mirrored “magic” messages and word puzzles (semordnilaps)
- Checking palindromes — a palindrome reads the same reversed
- Building test fixtures with reversed strings for code exercises
- Quickly flipping word order in a list or title
Emoji and other multi-byte characters are handled correctly — reversing “👍🏽” keeps the emoji intact instead of splitting it into broken halves.
Quick Answer
A reverse text tool flips your text backwards. You can reverse the character order ("hello" → "olleh"), reverse the word order ("hello world" → "world hello"), or reverse each word's letters while keeping word order. Paste your text and the reversed output updates live as you type, with a one-click copy button. Emoji and accented characters are handled safely. It is free, needs no sign-up, and runs entirely in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the three reverse modes?
Reverse characters flips the entire string ("hello world" → "dlrow olleh"). Reverse words flips the order of the words but keeps each word intact ("hello world" → "world hello"). Reverse each word's letters keeps the word order but flips letters inside every word ("hello world" → "olleh dlrow").
Does it work with emoji?
Yes. The tool reverses by Unicode code points, not raw bytes, so emoji and other multi-byte characters stay intact instead of splitting into broken, garbled halves. Sequences made of multiple combined emoji (like flags or skin tones) are treated as best effort.
What is reverse text used for?
Common uses include word puzzles and palindromes, mirrored "magic" messages, creating test fixtures for programming exercises, and flipping word order in titles or lists. Some people also use it to obfuscate spoilers.
What is a palindrome?
A palindrome is a word or phrase that reads the same forwards and backwards, like "level" or "A man, a plan, a canal: Panama" (ignoring spaces and punctuation). Paste a candidate into reverse-characters mode to check it instantly.
