Frequently asked questions

Does it support Unicode and emoji?

Yes. Encoding and decoding are UTF-8 safe in both directions.

Can I encode binary files?

This tool is for text. For files, use the Base64 capabilities of your code or a dedicated tool.

Is Base64 encryption?

No — it is an encoding, not encryption. Anyone can decode it; it is used for transport, not secrecy.
