Base64 to Image

Decode a base64 data URI or plain base64 string back into an image file.

How to use this tool

  • Paste the data URI or base64 text.
  • If it's raw base64, choose the output format.
  • Download the reconstructed file.

How it works

The base64 is decoded to bytes, wrapped in a Blob with the correct MIME type, and downloaded as a file.

Tips

  • Full data URIs carry the type inside — no format guessing needed.
  • Watch for stray whitespace: extra line breaks can break decoding.

Limitations

Malformed or truncated base64 strings will fail to decode correctly.

Frequently asked questions

Does it accept plain base64?

Yes — paste either a full data URI or raw base64; if the MIME type is absent you pick the format to save.

Where does decoding run?

Locally — the string is decoded in your browser and the file is created for download.

What formats come out?

Whatever the data URI says (PNG/JPG/WebP/BMP/GIF), or the format you select for raw base64.
