How do you remove symbols from text?

A remove symbols tool strips punctuation and special characters from text, keeping only letters, numbers and spaces. Snabbit uses Unicode-aware matching, so it cleans symbols from any language while leaving accented letters and digits intact. The whole conversion happens in your browser, so the text you paste stays private and is never sent to a server.

How to use the Remove Symbols

  1. 1 Paste your text into the input box.
  2. 2 Symbols and special characters are stripped automatically.
  3. 3 Letters, numbers and whitespace are kept intact.
  4. 4 Copy the cleaned text.

What you can use it for

  • Cleaning special characters out of imported data.
  • Preparing plain text for a name or search field.
  • Stripping decorative symbols from copied text.
  • Sanitising input before further processing.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as a symbol that gets removed?
Anything that is not a letter, number or whitespace — punctuation, currency and maths signs, brackets, emoji and other special characters.
Are numbers and accented letters kept?
Yes. Digits and Unicode letters (including accented ones like é or ü) are preserved; only symbols are removed.
How is this different from removing punctuation?
Removing symbols also strips maths and currency signs, brackets and emoji, whereas the punctuation remover focuses on punctuation marks.
