What is natural sort?

Natural sort orders 'item2' before 'item10' by comparing embedded numbers as numbers, not text.

Can I randomize line order?

Yes, choose the Shuffle mode and click Reshuffle for a new random order.

Is sorting case sensitive by default?

No, case-insensitive is the default; enable case sensitivity if you need strict ASCII ordering.

Is my data uploaded to a server?

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser using standard web APIs, so your input never leaves your device and nothing is logged or stored on our servers.

Does it work offline and on mobile?

Yes. Once the page has loaded it keeps working without a network connection, and the layout is responsive so it stays usable on phones and tablets.
