Paste your Base64 text and decode it back into a downloadable image file.
Got a data URI from an API, an email, or a codebase? Paste the string in and recover the actual picture as a file you can open and save.
Paste the Base64 string or full data URI into the input box.
Start the decode — the hidden image is reconstructed instantly.
Look over the preview to confirm it rendered correctly.
Download the image file in its native format.
Instant decoding, a live preview, and conversion that happens on your own device.
Drop in the string or a full data URI and the hidden picture appears right away.
Emails, exports and API responses that embed images as Base64 turn back into normal image files.
PNG, JPG, GIF, WebP or BMP; whatever was encoded comes back out.
When an API returns image data as text, this is the quickest way to actually look at it.
The string is parsed inside your browser; nothing is uploaded anywhere.
A long wall of letters, digits and symbols, often starting with data:image/png;base64,. The whole thing is the picture written in text form.
Text channels such as HTML, JSON and CSS cannot carry binary data directly, so the bytes are encoded into a safe text alphabet for transport.
Part of the image is missing, so the decode fails or looks corrupt. Ask for the string again and paste it completely, including the prefix.
Yes. Base64 is a transport encoding, not a compression format, so the bytes decode back exactly as they started.
The tool works in all modern browsers including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Safari and Opera. We recommend keeping your browser up to date for the best experience.
