Find and Replace
Find and replace text with case-sensitive and replace-all options, updating live as you type.
About Find and Replace
Manually replacing a word that appears dozens of times across a document is exactly the kind of task that invites mistakes, because it is so easy to miss one, fix the wrong one, or give up halfway. Find and replace performs the swap everywhere at once, reliably and consistently.
The tool finds every occurrence of your search text and replaces it, with a toggle to limit the change to the first match. Case-sensitive mode treats 'Color' and 'color' as distinct, and the output updates live so you see the result before you copy. Matches anywhere, including inside larger words, exactly as you specify.
Editors fixing consistent typos, developers renaming identifiers, and anyone converting between British and American spellings benefit. It is also the fast way to standardize terminology across a pasted document.
How to Use
- Paste your text.
- Enter the text to find and its replacement.
- See the replaced output update instantly.
Example
Replace color in "The color is blue." with colour The colour is blue.
Every occurrence of 'color' is swapped for 'colour'. Toggle case-sensitive mode to change only exact matches.
FAQ
Can I replace only the first occurrence?
Yes. A replace-all toggle controls whether every match or just the first one is replaced.
Does case-sensitive mode affect results?
When on, 'Color' and 'color' are distinct. When off, both are matched regardless of capitalization.
What if my find text appears inside a word?
The tool replaces matches anywhere, including inside words. Use it deliberately, or add spaces around your find text for whole-word behavior.
Can I replace across multiple lines of text?
Yes, the search text can span line breaks and even the whole document. Paste the multi-line snippet you want to match, and every occurrence is replaced wherever it appears.
Does the tool remember my last search?
No history is stored and nothing leaves your browser, so every session starts clean. That keeps the tool private and predictable for sensitive text you do not want shared.
