About this app

Unicode Inspector is a fast, modern, privacy-focused offline text analysis tool for developers, programmers, translators, writers, QA testers, students, and advanced users.



Understand exactly what is inside any piece of text down to the byte and code point level.



Key Features:



• Character-by-Character Inspector

Inspect every Unicode code point in a detailed list. View official Unicode names, U+XXXX notation, decimal values, hex values, categories, scripts, blocks, combining classes, bidi directionality, East Asian widths, numeric values, case equivalents, and decomposition rules.



• Code Point Representations

Get instant representations for every character: UTF-8 (Hex/Decimal), UTF-16, UTF-32, HTML decimal (\A), HTML hex (\A), JavaScript escapes (\\u0041, \\u{1F600}), JSON, Python, Kotlin/Java, CSS, and URL percent encoding.



• Invisible Character Detector

Detect zero-width spaces (ZWSP), zero-width non-joiners (ZWNJ), zero-width joiners (ZWJ), word joiners, byte order marks (BOM), non-breaking spaces (NBSP), variation selectors, and control characters with clear visual placeholders and explanations.



• Confusable \& Homoglyph Detector

Identify visually similar characters from other writing systems (such as Cyrillic or Greek lookalikes for Latin characters) to prevent spoofing and encoding bugs.



• Emoji Sequence Inspector

Deconstruct complex emoji sequences (such as skin tone modifiers, ZWJ sequences, regional flags, and gender variations) into their component Unicode code points.



• Unicode Normalization Tool

Compare and normalize text using official Unicode Standard Annex #15 forms: NFC (Canonical Composition), NFD (Canonical Decomposition), NFKC, and NFKD with a side-by-side difference viewer.



• Text Encodings \& Hex Decoder

View text encoded in UTF-8, UTF-16, and UTF-32 hex or decimal bytes. Paste raw hex byte sequences to decode them back into readable text.



• Text Escapes \& Entity Decoder

Encode and decode Unicode escapes (\\uXXXX), JSON escapes, HTML entities, and URL percent-encoded strings.



• Bidirectional Text Analysis

Inspect left-to-right (LTR), right-to-left (RTL), Arabic, Hebrew, and bidirectional control formatting characters.



• Search \& Favorites

Search the offline Unicode database by character, code point (U+0041), hex, decimal, name, script, block, or keywords ("emoji", "arrow", "currency", "Devanagari"). Favorite characters for quick access.



• Privacy-First \& Offline

100% local on-device processing. No internet connection required. No account required. Clipboard read only occurs when explicitly requested.
