Find & Replace

Find and replace words or phrases in text, with options for matching case, whole words only and regular expressions.

What is the Find & Replace?

Bulk replacement saves time when editing long documents, lists and code.

How does it work?

Your search is escaped (or used as a regex), optionally wrapped in word boundaries that work for Unicode, and every match is replaced. The number of replacements is shown.

Example

Replacing whole word “GST” with “Goods and Services Tax” leaves words like “GSTIN” unchanged.

Frequently asked questions

Is my text uploaded anywhere?

No. All processing happens in your browser, so your text never leaves your device.

Can I use capture groups?

Yes, in regular-expression mode: use $1, $2 in the replacement.
