Overview
HTML Tag Remover is a simple client-side utility for turning HTML into plain text. Paste a fragment, full page content, or copied rich text, and the tool removes tags while preserving readable words and line breaks as much as possible. It is useful for cleaning content, extracting text for notes, preparing snippets for search, or comparing text without markup. Processing happens locally in your browser for a safer, faster workflow.

FAQ
Does it keep the text content inside tags?

Yes. It uses client-side logic only, so your HTML is handled locally without external APIs.
Can it remove script and style content too?
It focuses on extracting readable text safely, so non-visible content may be ignored or removed depending on the parser behavior.
Will line breaks and spacing be preserved?
The tool tries to keep text readable, but exact formatting can vary depending on the HTML structure.
