Frequently Asked Questions
What is Base64?
Base64 is an encoding scheme that converts binary data into an ASCII string format. It's commonly used to embed data in URLs, HTML, CSS, and email bodies.
Is Base64 encryption?
No. Base64 is encoding, not encryption. It does not secure your data — anyone can decode a Base64 string. Use proper encryption (like AES) for security.
Why does my decoded text look wrong?
This usually means the input is not valid Base64, or the original encoding was not UTF-8. Check that you've copied the full Base64 string without any spaces or line breaks.
Can I use this for images?
Yes. Base64 is commonly used to embed images in HTML and CSS as data URIs. However, this tool handles text input only — not raw file bytes.
