How to use

ROT13 always rotates A–Z by 13 and is its own inverse. Caesar mode uses the selected shift; Decode applies the inverse shift. Only unaccented English ASCII letters participate.

Example

Input
Hello, مرحبا!
Output
Uryyb, مرحبا!

Limitations

Non-ASCII letters, digits, punctuation, Arabic, and emoji are unchanged. Caesar ciphers are historically interesting obfuscation and are not secure encryption.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I reverse ROT13?

Apply ROT13 a second time. A shift of 13 is its own inverse.

Why are Arabic or accented letters unchanged?

The explicit cipher alphabet is ASCII A–Z and a–z. Extending shifts to other scripts would require a different, agreed alphabet.
