Hashtag Cleaner and Formatter
100% PrivateSocial Media ToolsClean a messy hashtag block into a deduplicated, consistently formatted set.
Runs entirely in your browser. Your input is not uploaded to Ovatly or anywhere else.
Nothing to clean yet. Paste a hashtag block above.
- 1Paste your hashtag block into the box.
- 2Choose the output layout and tag style: keep as typed, all lowercase, or CamelCase.
- 3Optionally sort alphabetically or drop the # symbols.
- 4Copy the cleaned block and check the summary of what was removed.
Pasting '#travel #Travel, wanderlust,, #food! #travel' reads 5 items. The cleaner keeps #travel, #wanderlust and #food: it removes 2 duplicates (#Travel and the repeated #travel, matched ignoring capitalisation) and 0 junk items. The cleaned output is '#travel #wanderlust #food'.
- Deduplication is case-insensitive, because platforms treat #Travel and #travel as the same tag.
- Underscores and hyphens are treated as word separators for the CamelCase style, so #street_food becomes #StreetFood.
- Characters that cannot appear in a hashtag, like punctuation and spaces, are removed rather than kept.
If a token had no letters or numbers left after punctuation was stripped, for example just '#!!!', it is counted as junk and removed. The summary under the result tells you how many were dropped.
About this tool
Paste a messy hashtag block copied from an old post, a note or a spreadsheet, and get a clean, deduplicated list back. The cleaner strips stray punctuation, removes duplicates even when the capitalisation differs, drops tokens with no usable text, and formats the result the way you want: one line, comma separated, or one tag per line.
