What it does

Clean up an unsorted list in one step. Choose A→Z, Z→A, line length or numeric order, and optionally remove duplicate lines.

Sort lines alphabetically, numerically, by length, or remove duplicates.

How to use it

Here is the short version of using Text Sort Tool.

  • Paste the lines — One item per line.
  • Pick a sort mode — Alphabetical, reverse, length or numeric.
  • Copy the sorted list — Duplicates can be removed at the same time.

Features that matter

What Text Sort Tool does well.

  • Nothing leaves your device — The work happens in your browser tab. There is no upload endpoint in this app, so your files and text cannot be stored, logged or seen by us.
  • No upload wait — You skip the round trip to a server entirely. Results are limited by your own CPU, not by network speed or queue size.
  • Free, no account, no quotas — No sign-up wall, no watermark, no daily limit. Optional accounts only exist to save favourites and presets across devices.

Frequently asked questions

Is my list safe to use here?

Yes. This tool runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing you paste or open is sent to a server, and the page keeps no copy after you close it.

Do I need to create an account?

No. Every tool is fully usable without signing in. An account only adds saved favourites and reusable presets.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes. The interface is mobile-first with large touch targets and a stacked layout, so it works on phones and tablets as well as desktops.

How does numeric sort handle text?

Lines that start with a number are sorted numerically. Lines without a number are placed after the numeric entries and sorted alphabetically.

Is sorting case-sensitive?

Sorting uses locale-aware comparison, so case differences are handled naturally for most languages.
