Not every letter flips
Unicode has no upside-down version of some letters.
Type or paste your text, choose whether to reverse the letters, the word order or the line order, or flip it upside down, then copy the result. Accented letters and emoji stay whole where your browser supports it. Upside-down text works for English letters and digits only.

How do I reverse text?
Type or paste your text, choose what to reverse, letters, words or lines, and copy the result. Reversing letters turns 'hello' into 'olleh'; reversing words flips the word order; reversing lines flips the order of lines while keeping each line readable. Each option updates instantly.
Does reversing keep accents and emoji intact?
Yes. When your browser supports it, letters with accents and emoji are kept whole instead of being split into broken pieces. Very new or combined emoji may still behave oddly on older browsers, so check the result before sharing it. Test before posting. Simple text always reverses cleanly.
How does upside-down text work?
It swaps each letter for a look-alike Unicode character that appears upside down, then reverses the order so it reads correctly when the phone is turned around. It works for English letters and digits only. Digits flip too, where Unicode has a look-alike for them.
Why do some characters not flip?
Unicode doesn't have an upside-down version of every letter, so those characters stay unchanged. Most English letters and digits have reasonable look-alikes, but punctuation and other scripts may not flip at all. Check the result before you share it, and swap any unflippable words. Lowercase letters usually flip best.
Is my text uploaded?
No. Reversing and flipping happen in your browser, so your text stays on your device. Nothing is stored after you close the page. Nothing is stored after you close the page, and there's no account, email address or sign-up of any kind. Nothing leaves your device.
Can I reverse the order of lines in a list?
Yes. Choose reverse lines, and the last line becomes the first while each line stays readable. It's handy for flipping a list exported oldest-first, such as orders or messages, into newest-first order. Each line itself stays exactly as it was written. Blank lines are kept in place too.
Can I use upside-down text on Instagram or WhatsApp?
Usually yes, because it's made of Unicode characters that paste anywhere text is allowed. Some older phones may show a few characters as boxes. Screen readers read it poorly, so avoid it for important information. Use it for fun, not essentials. Check it on another phone first.
Does reverse text work for Hindi?
Reversing lines and word order works for Hindi. Reversing letters can break Hindi words, because vowel signs and conjuncts attach to letters and don't make sense reversed. Upside-down flipping isn't available for Devanagari. English and digits work best for the letter and flip options. Line reversal is the safest option for Hindi.
What is reversed text used for?
Mostly fun: puzzles, games, playful messages and mirror-writing challenges for children. Reversing lines is also practical for reordering lists. It isn't a way to hide information, because anyone can reverse it back. Children's puzzles and classroom activities are a popular use. It also makes a fun party game.
Can I reverse text back to normal?
Yes. Paste the reversed text and reverse it again with the same option. Letter reversal and line reversal both undo themselves. Upside-down text can usually be flipped back too, for the characters that were flipped. Nothing is lost along the way. Use the same option to undo it.
Does it work with long texts?
Yes. Long paragraphs and lists reverse instantly. For very large texts, reversing lines is quickest, because each line is kept as it is and only the order changes. Whole documents reverse in a moment, even on an average phone. There's no practical length limit for everyday use.
Is reversed text good for passwords?
No. Reversing a word is one of the first tricks password-guessing tools try. Use a password generator for strong, random passwords instead, such as the free password generator in the developer tools. Random, long passwords are much safer. Our password generator makes strong ones in seconds.
Can I mirror text for printing on glass?
Reversed letter order isn't the same as a true mirror image, which also flips each letter's shape. For window signs, use a design app's horizontal flip on the whole text, or ask your printer for a reverse print. Printers do this routinely. Ask before printing large signs.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. Type on your phone, choose the option and copy the result into WhatsApp, Instagram or any app. No app installation is needed. The result copies with one tap, ready to paste into any chat or post. Flipping a message takes just a few seconds.
Is it free?
Yes. Reversing text is free, with no sign-up and no limit. It's part of the free text tools from Marketiism, alongside the fancy text generator, case converter and sort lines. Nothing is added to your text, there's no daily limit, and you can use it for business and client work.
