About Word Cloud Generator™

Word Cloud Generator™ 3.1 — A Major Update Word Cloud Generator™ turns any block of text into a beautiful, shareable word cloud in seconds. Version 3.1 is our biggest release yet: a ground-up overhaul that adds real customization, smarter text handling, higher-quality output, and a faster, more reliable experience — while keeping the tool completely private and free. Bring in text any way you like Paste text straight into the editor, or import a plain-text (.txt) file from your computer with a single click. Whatever you load stays on your device — there is no account, no sign-up, and nothing is uploaded to a server. Make it yours with full styling controls Earlier versions offered only a handful of options. Version 3.1 unlocks the full power of the rendering engine: - Colors: choose random light or dark palettes, pick a single solid color, or color words by frequency so the most common words stand out. - Background: set any background color, or keep it transparent for clean overlays. - Fonts: select from a range of font families and switch between normal and bold weight. - Rotation: control how many words are rotated — none, some, or lots — for the exact look you want. - Shapes: render your cloud as a circle, heart, diamond, square, triangle, pentagon, or star. - Layout: fine-tune the spacing between words, hide words below a minimum size, and adjust the overall shape with an ellipticity slider. Smarter word sizing A new scaling option lets you switch between linear and logarithmic sizing. Logarithmic scaling prevents a single very common word from dominating the whole image, giving balanced, professional-looking results even with lopsided text. See changes instantly with live preview Turn on live preview and your cloud updates automatically as you edit text or adjust any control — no need to click a button after every change. Renders are cancelled and restarted intelligently so the preview always keeps up. Powerful word filtering Getting a clean cloud used to mean editing your text by hand. Now you can do it in the app: - Merge words by lowercasing so "The" and "the" count as one. - Remove common filler words (the, and, of, to…) with a single toggle. - Strip out numbers, set a minimum word length, and cap the maximum number of words shown. - Maintain your own exclusion list of words to hide. Frequency panel with one-click exclude A new panel lists your most frequent words alongside their counts. Click any word to instantly remove it from the cloud — perfect for quickly cleaning up names, boilerplate, or anything you don't want to feature. Export in high resolution Save your cloud at 1×, 2×, or 4× resolution for crisp results on high-DPI screens and in print. Export as PNG, JPEG, or WebP, and every file is named with a timestamp so your downloads stay organized. Transparent backgrounds are preserved in PNG and WebP and flattened cleanly to white for JPEG, so your image always looks right wherever you use it. Copy the image straight to your clipboard, or use your device's native Share sheet to send it to another app. Your settings are remembered All of your choices — text, size, colors, fonts, filters, and more — are saved automatically and restored the next time you open the app, so you can pick up right where you left off. A more polished, reliable experience Version 3.1 also fixes a long list of issues under the hood: - Punctuation, curly quotes, dashes, and symbols are now stripped correctly, so there are no stray marks or blank "words" in your cloud. - "The" and "the" are counted together, so word sizes reflect true frequency. - Copy and Save now report success or failure with clear on-screen messages, and always produce a valid image. - Image dimensions are safely limited so extreme sizes can't freeze or crash the tab, and high-resolution exports stay within your browser's limits. - Interface text now displays correctly in right-to-left languages such as Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, and Urdu. - Numerous smaller refinements make the app faster to load and lighter to run. Private by design Word Cloud Generator™ requests almost no permissions and does its work entirely on your computer. Your text never leaves your device, and the app works offline. There are no ads inside the tool and no tracking of what you create. Free, fast, and multilingual The interface is available in more than 40 languages. Whether you are a teacher building a classroom visual, a marketer highlighting themes in customer feedback, a student summarizing an essay, or simply having fun with your favorite song lyrics, Word Cloud Generator™ 3.1 gives you a fast, flexible, and private way to turn words into art. Best of all, it remains completely free, with no hidden costs and no premium tier. Update today and try the new colors, fonts, shapes, filters, and high-resolution export for yourself.
