Frequently Asked Questions
Base64 converts binary data into ASCII text. It is commonly used to embed images in HTML/CSS, send binary data in JSON APIs, and encode credentials.
This tool decodes Base64 text to plain text. For image data URIs (data:image/...), the decoded output is binary — use the encode direction to create them from files.
No. Base64 is encoding, not encryption. Anyone can decode it. Do not use it as a security measure.
Text is encoded using UTF-8 before Base64 conversion, which correctly handles international characters and emoji.
