ROT13 Cipher

ROT13 shifts every letter in your text 13 positions forward in the alphabet (A→N, B→O, …, Z→M). Because the alphabet has 26 letters, applying ROT13 twice returns the original text — making it its own inverse. It is used for obscuring spoilers, puzzle hints, and simple text obfuscation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is ROT13 a form of encryption?

No — ROT13 is a simple substitution cipher with no key. It provides no real security and should not be used to protect sensitive data.

How do I decode ROT13?

Apply ROT13 again. Because the shift is exactly half the alphabet, encoding and decoding are the same operation.
