Frequently Asked Questions

This tool scans each line in your text and removes any lines that appear more than once, keeping only the first occurrence (or a sorted unique list if you disable preserve order).

When enabled, the output keeps lines in their original order and only removes later duplicates. When disabled, the unique lines are sorted alphabetically.

When enabled, leading and trailing spaces are stripped from each line before comparing. This means ' apple ' and 'apple' are treated as the same line.

Yes — enable the 'Case-insensitive' toggle to treat 'Apple' and 'apple' as the same line. This is useful for normalizing inconsistent data.

Common uses include deduplicating email lists, cleaning up CSV data, removing repeated lines from code or configs, and filtering unique keywords from large keyword lists.
