Frequently Asked Questions
What is Base64 encoding?
Base64 converts binary data into ASCII text using 64 printable characters. It is commonly used to encode data in emails, URLs and APIs.
When would I need to decode Base64?
When working with APIs, email attachments, data URIs for images or JWT tokens that contain Base64 encoded data.
Does it work with images?
This tool encodes and decodes text only. For image Base64 conversion a separate image tool is needed.
Is Base64 the same as encryption?
No. Base64 is encoding not encryption. Anyone can decode it. Never use it to secure sensitive data.
Is my data sent to your servers?
Never. All encoding and decoding happens entirely in your browser locally.
