Tips to get the most out of it

Decide whether case matters

“Apple” and “apple” are different lines to a computer. Tick “Ignore uppercase and lowercase” if you want them to count as the same.

Invisible spaces

Two lines that look identical may differ by a trailing space. If a duplicate you can see isn't detected, tick “Ignore spaces at the start and end”.

See what repeats

“Only the repeated lines” tells you which items appear more than once: useful for spotting duplicate emails, references or keywords in a list.

Keep the original order

The tool doesn't reorder the list: it keeps the order in which the lines appear. If you want to sort it afterwards, use the list sorting tool.

Frequently asked questions

How do I remove duplicates from a text list?

Paste the list with one item per line, keep the “The list without duplicates” option and copy the result. The first occurrence of each line is kept.

Does it work for keyword or email lists?

Yes. It's common to remove duplicates from lists of keywords, URLs, emails or references before using them. For emails and keywords it's best to ignore case.

How many lines does it support?

The limit is your browser's memory. Lists of hundreds of thousands of lines are processed without trouble.
