The URL Decode Converter provides a simple way to decode URL-encoded strings into readable text. URL encoding is commonly used to safely transmit data in web addresses by replacing special characters with percent-encoded values.
This decoding process is often required during web development, debugging, analytics review, and form handling where encoded URLs need to be inspected or converted back to their original form. Manually decoding encoded strings can be error-prone without a dedicated tool.
Users paste an encoded URL or string, and the converter processes it by translating encoded characters back into their readable equivalents. This helps restore original text for review, testing, or data handling.
The decoding runs directly in the browser without requiring installation. Results appear instantly and can be reviewed before further use.
