What Clean Up Text does

Paste text from a PDF, an email or a spreadsheet and tidy it in one go: change it to Sentence case, lowercase, UPPERCASE, Title Case, camelCase, snake_case or kebab-case, remove extra spaces and blank lines, join lines that a PDF broke in the middle of sentences, sort or reverse lines, and remove duplicates. A live counter shows words, characters with and without spaces, sentences, paragraphs and reading time as you type.

Questions about Clean Up Text

Does Clean Up Text upload my files?

No. Clean Up Text runs entirely on your Mac, so your files never leave it and it works offline.

Will Clean Up Text change my original files?

No. Results are saved as new files in a dated folder in Downloads › OneMacTools, and your originals are left exactly as they were unless you turn on an option that says otherwise.

What does Clean Up Text need?

Just a Mac with macOS 26 or later. There's nothing else to install.
