Run Workflow now lets you pick a saved workflow from a list instead of typing its name. • You can also start TextLab actions from Spotlight and Siri. New tools for developers • JWT Decode shows a token's header, payload and expiry dates in plain words. • JSON to YAML converts in both directions and keeps your key order. • Escape String handles JSON, JavaScript, Swift, Java, C#, SQL, Shell, CSV and Regex. • Regex Tester highlights every match as you type and lists each capture group, so you know exactly what a pattern does before you use it. Cleaner links, free for everyone • Remove Tracking Parameters strips utm tags, fbclid, gclid and other trackers from every link in your text, so what you share stays private. Also in this update • Delete Matching Lines can now keep only the lines that start or end with your text. • Remove Invisible Characters finds more hidden characters, including the ones used to disguise text direction. • Open Source Licenses are now listed in Settings. • Bug fixes and performance improvements.

About

TextLab is a fast text utility for iPhone and iPad. Paste any text, pick a transformation, copy the result. No setup, no signup, no clutter. Whether you write copy, ship code, edit content, or just clean up messy text from emails and documents, TextLab handles the boring parts so you do not have to. Everything runs on your device. Your text never leaves your iPhone. WHAT IT DOES • Convert case in one tap. UPPERCASE, lowercase, Title Case, Sentence case, camelCase, PascalCase, snake_case, kebab-case. All the formats developers and writers actually use. • Clean up text fast. Remove extra spaces, empty lines, line breaks, duplicate words, duplicate lines. Trim whitespace. Strip rich text formatting in one tap. • Count what matters. Characters, words, lines, sentences, paragraphs, reading time. Live as you type. • Reverse, shuffle, sort. Reverse words, reverse letters, sort lines alphabetically or by length, shuffle randomly. PREMIUM TOOLS • Workflows. Chain any number of actions into a single reusable transformation. Save it, name it, give it an icon, run it on any text in one tap. Edit a workflow once, use it forever. • JSON and data formatters. Beautify or minify JSON. Format XML, HTML, YAML. Convert CSV to JSON and back with custom delimiters. Strip HTML tags. Strip Markdown. • Encoders and decoders. Base64, URL encoding, HTML entities, hex. Encode or decode in one tap. • Find and replace with regex. Full NSRegularExpression support for advanced search and replace. • Extract anything. Pull emails, links, phone numbers, dates from any block of text. Or write your own regex pattern to extract whatever you need. • Line tools. Sort lines, number lines (decimal or Roman), add prefix or suffix to every line, delete lines containing or not containing text, break lines after every word, sentence, or position. • Cleanup pro. Remove diacritics. Remove invisible Unicode characters that break text from web pages. Remove emojis. Filter words by pattern. • Markdown tools. Convert Markdown to HTML. Strip Markdown syntax to plain text. Clean Markdown formatting. • Apple Intelligence. On supported devices running iOS 26, run text through the on-device language model with your own prompt. Translate, rephrase, fix grammar, summarize. All on device. • Shortcuts integration. Every TextLab action and every workflow you create works as a Shortcuts action. Build automations, run them with a tap, a Siri command, or a Home Screen widget. • Share extension. Select text in any app, hit Share, run any TextLab action without leaving the app you are in. • iCloud sync. Your workflows follow you across iPhone and iPad. PRICING Free tier covers basic case conversion, cleanup, counters, and reverse. Genuinely useful with no time limits, no daily caps, no nags. PRIVACY TextLab does not collect any data. No analytics. No tracking. No accounts. All transformations run on your device. Your text is never sent over the internet. iCloud sync uses your private iCloud database, encrypted by Apple. WHO IT IS FOR • Developers who format JSON, debug data, convert case styles, encode tokens, test regex patterns. • Writers and journalists who clean up draft text, fix smart quotes, strip formatting, count words. • Marketers and copywriters who format headlines, generate slugs, count characters for ad copy, prepare social posts. • Students and researchers who clean up scraped text, format citations, transform data sets. • Anyone tired of pasting text into ten different websites just to fix capitalization.
