How to Increment Letters in Text Online
Shifting alphabet positions is a classic way to encode messages or transform data. Our Increment Letters tool makes it incredibly easy to shift every letter in your text forward or backward by a specific number of positions.
1 Enter Your Text
Type or paste your content into the input field. You can also drag and drop a text file (.txt, .md, .csv) directly onto the editor to load large amounts of data.
2 Choose Shift Amount
Set the Shift Amount. Positive numbers move letters forward (A → B), while negative numbers move them backward (B → A). Use 13 for ROT13 encoding or 3 for a standard Caesar cipher.
Common Use Cases
- Caesar Cipher: Create and decrypt simple messages using the historic Caesar shift method.
- Text Masking: Quickly obscure names or data in a list before sharing or storing.
- Creative Coding: Generate unique identifiers or encoded strings for development and testing.
