URL decode

Decode percent-encoded URL text in your browser. + becomes a space. Nothing is uploaded.

Paste, then Decode.

How to use the URL decode

Paste an encoded value or a query snippet.
Click Decode. + is treated as a space, then decodeURIComponent runs.
Copy the readable text.

Query values

Paste a single parameter value or a fragment with % escapes. A malformed % sequence throws and is shown as an error. For a full tagged URL, the UTM parser splits source, medium, and campaign without you decoding by hand.

Nothing is uploaded

Decode stays in the tab.

URL decode FAQ

Broken %?

Incomplete escapes such as %2 fail. Fix the string or encode again from the source.

Plus signs?

A + becomes a space, which matches form encoding.
