Pro Tips

  • Every occurrence of the find text is replaced, not just the first one
  • Leave the replace field empty to delete every occurrence of the find text instead
  • Case-sensitive matching is off by default, so 'Text' and 'text' are both matched unless you turn it on
  • The match count updates live, so you can see exactly how many replacements were made

Most Popular

Most users leave case-sensitive matching off for more forgiving, natural-language find and replace

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this replace all occurrences or just the first one?

All occurrences are replaced throughout the entire text, not just the first match.

Can I delete text instead of replacing it?

Yes, leave the 'Replace with' field empty to remove every occurrence of the find text.

Is matching case-sensitive?

Not by default - 'Text' and 'text' are treated the same. Check the case-sensitive box if you only want exact-case matches replaced.

Can I search for special characters like periods or parentheses?

Yes, the find text is treated as a literal string, not a pattern, so special characters are matched exactly as typed.

Is my data sent to a server?

No. The find and replace operation happens entirely in your browser.
