ABOUT


This page provides a specialized tool for decoding URL encoded text. URL encoding (also known as percent-encoding) is a method to encode special characters in URLs using a percent sign followed by two hexadecimal digits. This encoding is necessary because URLs can only contain a specific set of characters.

The URL Decode tool helps you convert percent-encoded characters back to their original form. For example, %20 becomes a space, %2F becomes a forward slash, and %3F becomes a question mark. This is particularly useful when working with URLs, query parameters, or any text that contains URL encoded characters.

As part of StringFlux, this tool can be chained with other operations for more complex transformations. For instance, you can decode a URL and then format it for better readability, or encode it back to URL format. If you need to encode text for URLs, check out our URL Encode Tool.
