Text utilities
Local String Inspector for Mac and iOS
Inspect string details, characters, and text properties. Blissum keeps this utility local on macOS, iPhone, and iPad so you do not have to paste code, tokens, certificates, URLs, or private text into random online tools.
A private alternative to online character inspector tools
Inspect a string and see useful counts such as characters, Unicode scalars, words, lines, UTF-8 bytes, whitespace, ASCII status, and empty status. It helps diagnose invisible whitespace, unexpected Unicode, copy/paste issues, byte length limits, and text that looks simple but behaves differently in code. Blissum makes this inspection available locally, including on iOS where developer text tools are harder to find.
Blissum groups everyday code, text, data, and web utilities into one local app for Mac, iPhone, and iPad, which is especially useful where iOS has fewer native developer-tool options.
