Reverse Line Order

Flip the order of lines in a list.

Copied to clipboard

This tool reverses the order of lines in your text, so the last line becomes the first and the first becomes the last. Each line’s content is untouched — only the sequence flips.

It is handy for turning a newest-first log into oldest-first, flipping a ranked list, or reversing any chronological data.

How to use the reverse line order tool

  1. Paste your list or multi-line text.
  2. The lines are reversed top to bottom.
  3. Copy the flipped list.

Reversing vs. sorting

Reversing keeps your existing order and simply turns it upside down. Sorting, by contrast, re-orders lines alphabetically regardless of their original sequence. If you want A→Z or Z→A, use Sort Lines; if you just want the current order flipped, this is the tool.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the same as sorting?

No. Reversing flips your existing order; sorting arranges lines alphabetically. Use Sort Lines for alphabetical order.

Does it change the text on each line?

No. Only the order of the lines changes; the content of each line stays exactly the same.

Can it reverse a chat or log to oldest-first?

Yes. Paste a newest-first log and reversing gives you oldest-first, provided each entry is on its own line.
