Runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you type is sent anywhere.
How to use the URL encode and decode
Encoding a single value escapes every special character. Encoding a full URL keeps characters such as / ? & = that give the link its structure.
- Paste a URL or a piece of text.
- Choose whether it’s a single value or a full URL.
- Tap Encode or Decode. Paste a full link to see its parts and parameters listed.
Questions
What’s the difference between the two modes?
A full URL keeps characters like / ? and & that give the address its structure. A value is encoded completely, which is what you need for one query parameter.
Is my text sent anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser. Nothing you type or paste leaves your device.
