What is NFC normalization?

NFC combines characters and accents into their canonical composed Unicode form, which helps text comparisons.

Will this change my text's meaning?

No, it only normalizes representation — quotes, dashes, and spacing — not wording.

Can I lowercase text too?

Yes, there's an optional lowercase toggle in the options bar.

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.

About the Text Case & Unicode Normalizer

Clean up copy-pasted text by normalizing Unicode form (NFC), converting curly quotes to straight quotes, fancy dashes to hyphens, and collapsing odd whitespace characters — useful before diffing or storing text.
