FAQ
Is my text sent to a server?
No. All sorting happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your text never leaves your device.
Can I sort numbers correctly?
Yes. Use the 'Numeric' sort mode. Lines are sorted by their leading number value, so '2' comes before '10'.
What does 'Ignore case' do?
When enabled, uppercase and lowercase letters are treated the same during sorting. 'Apple' and 'apple' are considered equal.
Is there a line limit?
No hard limit. Since everything runs in the browser, very large texts (tens of thousands of lines) may be slightly slower but will still work.
Can I sort and remove duplicates?
This tool focuses on sorting. For removing duplicates, use our Duplicate Line Remover tool — or sort first here, then remove duplicates there.
