Handy while you write
The word counter shows characters, words, sentences and paragraphs along with an estimated reading time, which helps you stay within limits for essays, articles or meta descriptions. The case converter switches text between UPPERCASE, lowercase, Title Case and sentence case in one click. The lorem ipsum generator produces placeholder text for designs and templates, and the fancy text generator offers Unicode-based styles for social media bios, usernames and gaming nicknames that you can paste almost anywhere.
Reading aloud and dictation
Text to speech reads your text with the voices available in your browser, which is a good way to proofread a long piece by ear or check pronunciation. Speech to text turns what you say into text in real time. Dictation uses the browser’s speech recognition service, so the audio is processed on the provider’s servers, for example Google or Microsoft; keep that in mind for confidential content. Speaking clearly at a steady pace in a quiet room improves accuracy.
What makes a strong password
The password generator creates unpredictable passwords with your browser’s cryptographic random number generator and never stores them. Length matters more than complexity: aim for 16 characters or more with a mix of upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols. Use a different password for every account and keep them in a password manager, because reusing one password means a single data breach can expose all of your accounts. Turn on two-factor authentication wherever it is offered.
