FAQ – URL Encoder & Decoder

Why do I need URL encoding?

URLs can’t contain spaces or unsafe characters. Encoding ensures links are valid and safe for browsers and servers.

Can I decode multiple lines at once?

Yes. Paste any long string, and the tool decodes it fully.

Is this the same as HTML escaping?

No. URL encoding is for query strings/links, while HTML escaping is for HTML markup safety.
