Common questions

Answers about ROT13 Encoder and Decoder

Does this tool only rotate by 13?

The Amount control changes the rotation. The lower-case, upper-case, and number controls select which character groups rotate. Record these choices when you want another person to reverse the result.

When does applying ROT13 twice restore text?

The usual 13-position rotation restores English letters when applied twice. A different Amount or enabled numeric rotation can require a different inverse. Check the selected groups rather than assuming the tool name fixes every setting.

Can ROT13 protect private information?

No. The transformation is easy to reverse and has no secret key. Use it for puzzles or hiding casual spoilers. A Complete label only means the selected transformation ran.
