How the letters map from a to z

No single Unicode block holds upside down letters. Each turned letter is borrowed from a different block, such as IPA Extensions (ɐ, ɥ) or Letterlike Symbols (Ⅎ, ⅁), and a few letters look the same turned: l, o, s, x and z in lowercase, H, I, N, O, S, X and Z in capitals. Code points were read from the Unicode character database by script on October 22, 2026.

Where upside down text shows correctly

Upside down letters are standard Unicode, but whether an app draws each one depends on its fonts. We have not run a dated test in these apps, so none is marked as working.

Frequently asked questions

What is upside down text?

It is text where each letter is replaced by a character that looks like the letter turned 180 degrees, and the order is reversed, so the line reads correctly when you rotate the screen. It is made from Unicode characters, so you can paste it where you cannot pick a font.

Is upside down text a font?

No. The letters are separate characters, so there is nothing to install. If an app lacks a font for one of them, that letter can show as an empty box.

Why do some letters look different after flipping?

Unicode has no exact turned shape for every letter. Letters such as l, o, s, x and z look the same turned, and a few capitals use a close stand-in, such as Ό for Q.

Can I use upside down text in an Instagram bio?

You can paste it there, but we have not tested it in the app yet and do not mark it as working. Paste it into your bio and check how it looks before you save.
