Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about base64 to image decoding
What is a data URL?
A data URL embeds an entire image as text, for example data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgo.... It lets you store or transmit images inside code, APIs, and databases without a separate file.
Which formats are supported?
PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF, BMP, and AVIF — the format is auto-detected via magic bytes in the file header, so you never need to specify it manually.
How do I paste base64?
Paste the string with or without the data: prefix. Our decoder accepts both raw base64 strings and full data URLs, and it figures out the format for you automatically.
Is it secure?
Your privacy is our priority. All decoding happens locally in your browser — your base64 string is never sent to our servers, so it never leaves your device.
