Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between alphabetical and numeric sorting?

Alphabetical sorts the items as text, character by character. Numeric reads each item as a number and orders by value, so 2 comes before 10 instead of after it.

Why does 10 come before 2 in alphabetical order?

Because text is compared one character at a time, and “1” comes before “2”. Switch to Numeric sorting to order by the actual values.

What does ignore case do?

With ignore case on, “apple” and “Apple” are treated the same, so capital letters do not jump to the top or bottom of the list.

Does sorting remove duplicates?

No. Every item is kept, just reordered. To drop repeats, use a tool that removes duplicate lines first.

Is my list sent to a server?

No. Sorting runs in your browser and your list never leaves the tab.
