What is Text Reverser?

A text reverser takes a string and returns it with the characters in reverse order. "Hello" becomes "olleH". This tool uses JavaScript's Unicode-aware string iteration, which correctly handles multi-byte characters, emoji, and combining characters — unlike naive reversal that can break surrogate pairs.

Text reversal is a common programming exercise and interview question, but it also has practical uses: creating mirror text for design, testing bidirectional text rendering, verifying palindromes, and debugging string encoding issues.

FAQ

Does it handle emoji correctly?
Yes. The tool uses Unicode-aware iteration (the spread operator on strings), which treats emoji as single characters rather than breaking them into surrogate pair halves.
Does it reverse lines or characters?
It reverses the entire text character by character, including newlines. If you want to reverse the order of lines, use the Line Sorter tool with 'Reverse order' mode.
What about right-to-left languages?
The tool reverses the character sequence regardless of the text direction. For Arabic or Hebrew text, this means the logical order of characters is reversed, which may or may not produce readable text depending on your intent.
