Question 1

What kinds of cleanup does the Text Cleaner do?

Accepted Answer

It trims extra whitespace, removes duplicate lines, deletes empty lines, and strips HTML tags from pasted text.

Question 2

Is any of my text stored or uploaded?

Accepted Answer

No, all cleaning happens locally in your browser, so your text stays on your device.

Question 3

Will stripping HTML tags keep the text formatting?

Accepted Answer

No, removing HTML tags also removes the formatting they controlled, so line breaks and styling from the original markup won't be preserved.

Question 4

Is it free to use?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it's free with no account required.

Question 5

Does deduplicating lines care about capitalization or extra spaces?

Accepted Answer

Lines are typically compared as exact matches, so two lines that differ only in capitalization or trailing spaces may both be kept.
