Upside Down Text Generator

Type or paste your text into the input box and the upside down version appears below automatically. You can then copy and paste it wherever you need it.

The upside down effect is created by mapping each standard character to a visually inverted Unicode equivalent. For example, the letter "a" becomes "ɐ" and "t" becomes "ʇ". The generator also reverses the order of the characters so the entire string reads from right to left when flipped, producing the illusion that the text has been physically rotated 180 degrees. To reverse the order without changing the letters, use the Reverse Text Generator. Because these are real Unicode symbols rather than images, the flipped text can be copied and pasted into social media posts, chat messages, emails, and any other text field that supports Unicode.

Flipping turns each letter over where it stands, reversing changes the order of the letters without changing them, and upside down text does both, so it reads correctly when the screen is turned around. Set Flip to Upside down only for the first effect. Here is the word "Party" each way:

For reversed text on its own, use the Reverse Text Generator. For a left to right flip that keeps the text the right way up, use the Mirror Text Generator.

Choose Flip Back above the two panels, then paste the upside down text into the left panel. Each inverted character is mapped back to its original letter and the order is reversed again (with Upside down only, the order is left as it is), so the right panel shows the text the right way up. Characters with no upside down equivalent pass through unchanged in both directions.

Most lowercase Latin letters and several uppercase letters have a visually inverted Unicode counterpart (e.g., "a" to "ɐ", "b" to "q", "e" to "ǝ"). Numbers and some punctuation also have flipped equivalents. However, not every character has a perfect match - characters without a close visual inverse may remain unchanged or use an approximate substitute. The result works best with lowercase English text. For a horizontal flip instead of an upside-down flip, try the Mirror Text Generator.
