Quick answers
Frequently asked questions
Will the URL decoder turn plus signs into spaces?
No. It decodes percent escapes and leaves plus signs intact. Form-encoded query strings may need a separate conversion.
What happens when a percent escape is malformed?
The tool reports invalid URL-encoded text instead of guessing. Correct the escape sequence before using the decoded value.
