Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is Base64?
Base64 is a method for encoding binary data into ASCII text format. It's commonly used to transmit data through media that only handle text.
Is Base64 encryption?
No. Base64 is an encoding, not encryption. Anyone can decode it without a secret key.
Why does my decoded string look strange?
This tool assumes UTF-8. If the Base64 was generated from binary (like an image) or another encoding, the text result may be incorrect.
