Panoramica dello strumento

URL decoding reverses percent-encoding: every %XX triple is interpreted as a UTF-8 byte and the result is decoded back to text. This tool wraps decodeURIComponent and surfaces malformed input ("%" without two hex digits, or invalid UTF-8 sequences) as "Invalid URL encoding".

FAQ

Why does it say "Invalid URL encoding"?+

The input contains a malformed percent escape — for example, % followed by something other than two hex digits, or a sequence that does not decode to valid UTF-8.

Can it decode whole URLs?+

It decodes any percent-escaped string. If you paste a full URL, structural characters like ?, &, = will be left as-is because they are already valid URL characters.
