Upside down text replaces each letter with a Unicode character that looks like it is rotated, then reverses the order so it reads correctly when the phone is turned around.

A few letters have no perfect flipped twin and use the closest look-alike. Numbers and common punctuation are flipped too. It is a fun effect for a bio line or a message, not for important text.
