About Base64 Decoder

Decode Base64 text or files back to their original content, with download support.

Base64 Decoder turns encoded strings and uploaded files back into whatever they were hiding, whether that is plain text, JSON, an image path or a chunk of HTML. Paste the encoded payload and the decoded output appears beside it in real time, with a character count, a validity warning if the padding is wrong and a clear note when the data is not valid Base64 at all. You can also drop a file, decode it and download the result with the original extension restored. Options let you choose URL safe decoding, ignore line breaks and toggle word wrapping for long payloads, which matters when you are inspecting data URIs or API responses. Developers use it to inspect tokens and configuration blobs, students to understand encoding, and support staff to read pasted logs. Base64 Decoder is free, offline and never uploads your content.

  1. Enter or paste the text, data or value you want to encode or decode.
