How to use Base64 to Image

  1. Paste the Base64 string — with or without the data:image/...;base64, prefix.

  2. The image decodes and previews instantly.

  3. Check it is the picture you expected.

  4. Download it as a file in its original format.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to include the data URI prefix?

No. Both a full data URI and a bare Base64 string work — the image format is read from the prefix when present, and sniffed from the bytes when not.

Why would an image be Base64 in the first place?

APIs, emails and CSS often embed images as Base64 text so everything travels in one payload. This tool turns that text back into a normal file you can open.

Is the string uploaded anywhere?

No. Decoding happens entirely in your browser — the data never leaves your device.
