Sometimes you just need to know what changed. Maybe you tweaked a paragraph and want to see exactly what's different. Maybe someone sent you a "slightly updated" contract. Maybe you're staring at two config files that are supposed to be identical but clearly aren't. Compare Text does one thing well: it puts two pieces of text next to each other and shows you what's different. Deleted bits turn red on the left, new bits turn green on the right, and a small counter tells you how much changed at a glance. It works on anything you can paste or open β plain text, code, JSON, emails, contracts, notes. A few things that make it nicer to use: β’ Paste straight from your clipboard, or open a text file β’ Ignore case or extra spaces when those don't matter to you β’ Wrap long lines so nothing runs off the edge β’ Line numbers, so it's easy to say "look at line 12" β’ Not sure where to start? Tap Sample to see it in action And it stays with you. No account, no ads, and your text never leaves the phone β the comparison runs right on your device, even offline. It's the same Compare Text tool people use on the web, just sized to fit in your pocket.
