Decode Base64 strings and instantly convert them into viewable image files directly in your browser. No uploads, no servers, and complete privacy.
The Convert Base64 to Image tool allows anyone to transform encoded Base64 image data into real, usable image files. It works entirely in your browser, meaning your data never leaves your device.
Base64 encoding increases file size by about 33%, which is why it is mainly used for safely transmitting images and files through systems that only support text-based data.
Base64 was introduced as part of early email and internet standards to allow binary data such as images to be transmitted through text-only systems. Over time it became a universal method for embedding images directly into HTML, CSS, and JSON. Tools like this one simplify working with that legacy encoding method in modern web environments.
