How Repeat Count and Separator Work Together
The input text is repeated exactly as many times as the repeat count specifies, joined together with whatever separator is set between each copy. With no separator set, the copies run directly together with nothing between them, so "ab" repeated 3 times becomes "ababab". Setting a separator, like ", ", inserts it between every pair of repetitions but not before the first or after the last, so "ab" repeated 3 times with that separator becomes "ab, ab, ab".
Custom Separator vs. One-Per-Line Mode
These two options are mutually exclusive: enabling "One per line" always joins the repetitions with a newline character, overriding whatever custom separator text is also set. Turn "One per line" off to use a custom separator instead, whether that's a comma, a space, a pipe character, or any other text.
Common Uses
Generating repeated placeholder or test data (like stress-testing a form field with a long repeated string, or producing a quick sample dataset) is the most common use. Repeating a code fragment or CSS declaration a fixed number of times, generating a one-per-line list from a single template value, and producing novelty repeated text for social posts are all common secondary uses.
Character Limits and Performance
The repeat count is capped at 1000, but total output length also scales with the length of the input text itself, a long input repeated many times can produce a very large output. The tool handles this efficiently (a 1,000-character input repeated 1,000 times, producing a million-character output, completes essentially instantly), but extremely large outputs may still be unwieldy to copy or work with elsewhere depending on where you paste them.
What This Tool Doesn't Do
It doesn't add a prefix or suffix around the whole output, and it doesn't number each repetition (like "1. text", "2. text"), features some other repeater tools include. If you need numbered output, a simple workaround is generating the plain repeated list here and then adding numbers with a separate line-numbering or find-and-replace step. Use it to repeat text online as a repeat text generator, a text repeat tool, or a way to repeat string online, ideal for a repeat text with separator workflow, as a duplicate text generator, or simply as an online string repeater.
