In short

Comment Reflow is a macOS utility that rewraps long // and /// comments in Xcode to a column width the user sets. It keeps indentation, comment markers, and DocC structure such as parameter lists and code blocks intact, and it can process a single comment, a selection, or a whole file in one command. Its standout feature is that it runs entirely on the Mac, with source code held in memory only while a command runs.

Summary by Debuts, based on the App Store listing.

About

Comment Reflow reflows long // and /// comments in Xcode to a column width you choose — keeping indentation, comment markers, and DocC structure correct on every line, even across multiple comment blocks at once.

If you have ever pasted a long comment into Swift code and ended up with an ugly, overlong line — or manually re-wrapped a DocC comment after editing one word — Comment Reflow fixes that with one command.

HOW IT WORKS

Place your cursor in a // or /// comment, or select part of one, then run "Reflow Line Comments" from the Editor menu in Xcode (or your own keyboard shortcut). Select a larger range — even an entire file — to reflow every comment block inside it in one pass, while leaving your actual code untouched.

FEATURES

• Wraps // line comments and /// DocC comments to a configurable column width • Preserves indentation and comment markers on every line • Correctly re-wraps DocC structure: parameter lists, bullet points, code blocks, and callouts • Reflows a single comment, a selection, or an entire file in one command • Works as a lightweight Source Editor Extension for Xcode — no changes to your project files or build settings

PRIVACY

Comment Reflow works entirely on your Mac. Your source code is processed in memory only while you run a command, and is never stored or sent anywhere.

SETUP

After installing, open the app once and follow the Setup tab to enable the extension in System Settings and (optionally) assign a keyboard shortcut in Xcode.

Comment Reflow is free, with no ads, no tracking, and no account required.
