Method & assumptions
How Base64 Text Converter derives its result.
Formula
UTF-8 converts text to bytes, then Base64 maps bytes to printable characters; decoding reverses that process.
Recommended workflow
- Choose encode or decode.
- Paste the text or Base64 string.
- Copy the result; do not treat Base64 as encryption.
Limitations
Never use Base64 to protect passwords, API keys, or private information.
For important work, verify assumptions against the authoritative source for your task.
