One-Click Cleaning: Remove All vs Replace All
Once invisible characters are detected, you have two powerful options — and choosing the right one depends on your goal.
Remove All — The Nuclear Option
Deletes every detected invisible character instantly. Perfect for:
- Cleaning code before commit
- Fixing broken JSON/API payloads
- Sanitizing clipboard content
- Preparing text for production
Replace All — The Visible Audit Trail
Replaces each invisible character with a placeholder (default: [INV]). Ideal when you want to:
- See exactly where invisible characters were
- Review changes before final cleanup
- Document incidents (e.g. spam reports)
- Educate team members
Which Should You Use?
Use Remove All for production code and final cleanup.
Use Replace All for investigation, debugging, or training.
FAQ
Does Remove All break layout?
No — our offset-tracking algorithm preserves all spacing and line breaks perfectly.
Can I customize the placeholder?
Yes — change it to [ZW], [HIDDEN], or any text you prefer.
One click. Total control. Your text, your rules.
