Reverse list

Reverse a list online instantly with this list reverser tool. Paste any set of items—names, numbers, IDs, tasks—and get the order flipped from last to first. Perfect for reverse list order, invert array online, reverse CSV rows, and reverse lines in text. It’s a quick way to fix imports, re-sequence logs, or prepare data for reports.

What is a List Reverser?

A list reverser takes an ordered list and outputs it in the exact opposite order. Unlike a list randomizer (which shuffles unpredictably), a reverser is deterministic: the last item becomes first, the first becomes last. Use it to reverse list order online for spreadsheets, scripts, and content workflows.

Why use a Reverse List tool?

• Data cleanup: Fix lists captured in the wrong direction (e.g., newest-to-oldest).
• Reporting: Present timelines from end to start or vice versa without retyping.
• Dev & ops: Reverse array online for quick checks, logs, and pipeline tests.
• Content editing: Flip numbered steps, bullet lists, or chapter orders in one click.

How to use the List Reverser

1. Paste your list (one item per line, or comma/semicolon separated).
2. Choose delimiter (line breaks, commas, tabs) and optional settings (trim spaces, keep numbering).
3. Reverse order to get the inverted sequence, then copy/export as TXT/CSV.

Options & settings

Delimiters

Select how items are split: line breaks, commas, tabs, pipes, or custom separator. Ideal for reverse CSV lines or reverse TSV.

Preserve numbering

Keep original numbering as text, or renumber after reversal (1..N descending becomes 1..N ascending).

Trim & de-duplicate

Normalize whitespace and optionally remove duplicates before reversing for clean outputs.

Who is this for?

• Analysts & marketers flipping campaign lists or timelines.
• Developers & SREs reversing logs, stack traces, or arrays for quick inspection.
• Students & writers rearranging outlines, citations, or reference lists.
• Project managers reordering backlogs and task queues.

Examples

Reverse lines

Input:
Alpha
Bravo
Charlie
Delta

Output:
Delta
Charlie
Bravo
Alpha

Reverse a comma-separated list

Input:  1,2,3,4,5
Output: 5,4,3,2,1

Reverse with renumbering

Input:
1) Open settings
2) Click “Account”
3) Enable 2FA

Output (renumbered):
1) Enable 2FA
2) Click “Account”
3) Open settings

Best practices

• Know your delimiter: Pick the same separator your spreadsheet or app expects.
• Trim whitespace: Remove leading/trailing spaces to avoid accidental duplicates.
• Backup originals: Keep the unmodified list in case you need to compare versions.
• Combine tools: Reverse order first, then use a list randomizer or case converter if needed.

FAQ

Does reversing change the content of items?

No—only the order changes. Item text remains exactly the same.

Can I reverse a single line with many values?

Yes—choose the correct delimiter (commas, tabs, pipes) so the tool splits and reverses correctly.

Will numbering update automatically?

It can—enable renumber after reverse to regenerate ordered lists.

Is this the same as shuffling?

No—reversing is deterministic. For random order, use a list randomizer.
