Base64 to Image Converter
Paste a Base64 string or a full data URI below to instantly render and download it as an image file. The decoding happens entirely on your device — nothing is uploaded.
How to Use the Base64 to Image Converter
- Copy your Base64 string or data URI from wherever it's stored (code, JSON, database, API response).
- Paste it into the text box above.
- Click "Convert to Image" to render it as a picture.
- Click "Download Image" to save the file to your device.
Why Use This Tool?
Is my Base64 data uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything happens locally in your browser using standard JavaScript image decoding. The string you paste is never transmitted to a server, logged, or stored anywhere — it exists only in your browser's memory for as long as the page is open. This makes the tool safe to use even with sensitive images, private screenshots, or proprietary graphics embedded in code you're not ready to share publicly.
What format will the downloaded file be?
The tool preserves whatever format is encoded in your data URI's MIME type (for example "data:image/jpeg;base64,..." downloads as a .jpg, "data:image/png;base64,..." downloads as a .png). If you paste a bare Base64 string with no data URI prefix, we assume PNG and download it as a .png file.
Why am I getting an "invalid image data" error?
This usually means the pasted text isn't valid Base64-encoded image data — perhaps it was truncated when copied, contains extra whitespace or line breaks that broke the encoding, or it's actually encoding something other than an image (like a PDF or a font file). Double-check you copied the complete string, including all characters up to the very end.
Who needs a Base64 to image converter?
Developers debugging embedded images in HTML/CSS/JSON, anyone inspecting API responses that return images as Base64, or people restoring an image from a backup or email attachment that was Base64-encoded. This tool gives you an instant, private way to turn that text back into a real, downloadable picture.
