URL Encode / Decode

Percent-encode or decode URL components — privately in your browser.

Your files never leave your device

Uses encodeURIComponent / decodeURIComponent — good for query values and path segments (not the same as full URL parsing).

Output
hello%20world%20%26%20q%3D1

How It Works

Step 1

Paste a string

Use plain text or already-encoded percent sequences.

Step 2

Encode or decode

Switch modes to apply component encoding or decoding.

Step 3

Copy for APIs

Copy the result for query strings, redirects, or logging.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Everything runs locally in your browser.
