About Find & Replace

Search and replace across text, with optional regular expressions. Paste or type your text into Find & Replace, adjust the settings, and the result appears below.

Your files stay on your device. ZyncTools has no upload step: the file is read in your browser, processed there, and handed straight back to you. There is no account, no watermark and no size cap beyond what your own device can hold.

Settings. Find & Replace gives you control over find, replace with, treat "find" as a regular expression, match case and whole words only.

Also known as: find, replace, regex, substitute.

Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded when I use Find & Replace?

No. Find & Replace runs entirely inside your browser. Your text is read locally, processed on your own device, and handed straight back to you. You can confirm this yourself: open your browser's developer tools, watch the Network tab, and run the tool — no request carries your data anywhere.

Is Find & Replace free?

Yes, completely. No account, no sign-up, no watermark on your output, and no cap on how many times you can use it. The project is open source under the AGPL licence.

Does Find & Replace work offline?

Mostly. The site caches itself after your first visit, so it keeps working without a connection. Tools that need a specialised library — PDF editing, OCR, QR codes, MP3 encoding — need a connection the first time you run them, then that library is cached too.
