Frequently Asked Questions

What counts as "extra whitespace"?

Any run of two or more spaces, tabs, or trailing whitespace at the end of lines. The cleaner collapses them down to a single space, while preserving intentional paragraph breaks if you choose to.

Will it remove emoji or special characters?

No — emoji and standard Unicode punctuation are preserved. Only zero-width and other non-printable control characters are stripped by default.

Is my text sent to a server?

No. All cleaning happens locally in your browser via JavaScript. Nothing is uploaded, logged, or stored.
