Whether "Apple" and "apple" count as the same entry or two different ones depends entirely on the data, a list of email addresses probably should treat them as identical, while a list of exact product codes probably shouldn't, and a duplicate-line tool that can't make that distinction either strips lines it shouldn't or keeps ones it should have merged. This tool removes duplicate lines from text with an explicit case-sensitivity toggle and an optional sort, rather than assuming one fixed behavior for every kind of list.

Useful for deduplicating a list of email addresses where case shouldn't matter, keeping "Apple" and "apple" as separate entries when case genuinely does matter for the data, or removing duplicates and sorting the result alphabetically in the same pass instead of two separate steps.

Quick answers for Remove Duplicate Lines

How does the Remove Duplicate Lines tool decide what counts as a duplicate?
By default, two lines are duplicates when they match after lowercasing. Toggle Case-sensitive to treat "Apple" and "apple" as different, or enable Trim whitespace to ignore leading and trailing spaces when comparing.
Does it preserve the original order?
Yes. The first occurrence of each unique line is kept in its original position; later duplicates are dropped. This is the behaviour most people want when cleaning a list.
Can I skip empty lines?
Yes. Toggle Skip empty and the tool drops any line that is blank (or contains only whitespace) before deduping. Useful when pasting text with stray newlines.
Is there a limit on input size?
No fixed limit - the tool runs in your browser. Tens of thousands of lines process in well under a second; very large inputs are bounded only by your device's memory.
Will my data be uploaded?
No. The Remove Duplicate Lines tool is fully client-side. Whatever you paste - addresses, IDs, log lines - never leaves your browser.
