Can I sort numerically instead of alphabetically?

Standard alphabetical sorting treats numbers as text by default (so "10" sorts before "2") — check whether a numeric sort mode is what you actually need for number lists specifically.

Does shuffle produce a genuinely random order each time?

Yes, each shuffle produces a fresh random ordering, not a fixed or predictable pattern.

Does sorting affect blank lines in my list?

Blank lines are typically sorted to one end depending on the sort direction — remove them first with a list cleaner if you don't want them included at all.

Does Sort Lines upload my files to a server?

No. Sort Lines runs entirely in your browser using on-device processing, your files never leave your device.

About this tool

Sorting a list of lines alphabetically, reverse alphabetically, or randomizing their order is common prep work for data cleanup, random selection, or just organizing a reference list, and doing it manually for anything beyond a few lines is slow. This tool sorts lines alphabetically, reverse alphabetically, or shuffles them randomly, handling the reordering instantly regardless of list length.
