Remove Letters from Text
Remove every occurrence of specific letters from your text - great for word puzzles, vowel-removal challenges, or custom text cleanup.
Recommended Settings
Pro Tips
- •The default removes all vowels (a, e, i, o, u) - a classic starting point for word puzzles
- •Enter any set of letters you want removed, like 'xyz' or a single letter
- •By default, case is ignored, so removing 'a' also removes 'A' - check the case-sensitive box to only match exact case
- •This only removes individual letters, not whole words - use Find & Replace for whole-word removal

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I remove more than one letter at a time?
Yes, type all the letters you want removed together, like 'aeiou' to remove all vowels at once.
Does this remove whole words containing those letters?
No, only the individual letter characters are removed - the rest of each word stays intact.
Is this case-sensitive?
By default, no - removing 'a' also removes 'A'. Check the case-sensitive box if you only want to match the exact case you typed.
Is my data sent to a server?
No. The removal happens entirely in your browser.
Can I remove numbers or punctuation this way?
Yes, this tool works on any character, not just letters - for a dedicated numbers-only removal, see Remove Numbers from Text instead.
