URL Encoder & Decoder

Encode URLs to a safe format for web transmission or decode URL-encoded strings back to readable text.

How to Use

1. Enter a URL or text string
2. Click "Encode" to convert special characters to percent-encoding
3. Or paste an encoded URL and click "Decode"

Why URL Encoding?

URLs can only contain certain ASCII characters. Special characters like spaces, ampersands, and non-ASCII characters must be encoded using percent-encoding (e.g., space becomes %20).
