FAQ
Is this safe for sensitive text?
Yes — encoding happens locally in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server. That said, Base64 is not encryption; it's just a text representation, so don't rely on it for secrecy.
Why did decoding fail?
The text you pasted isn't valid Base64 — check for missing characters or extra whitespace.
