How it works
- Pick a direction: Text → NATO spells your text out; NATO → Text decodes phonetic words back.
- Text → NATO maps every letter and digit (A=Alpha … Z=Zulu, 0=Zero … 9=Nine); word breaks become
/. - Choose how NATO words join: space, hyphen, or new line.
- NATO → Text splits on spaces, hyphens, and newlines, matches case-insensitively, and passes unknown tokens through unchanged — with a count of anything unmatched.
- Conversion is live as you type; copy the result in one click.
