What is URL decoding? It is the process of reversing percent-encoding, where sequences like '%20' are changed back to their original characters (like spaces).
Does it handle '+' as space? Yes, our decoder correctly handles both standard percent-encoding and the '+' convention used in many web forms.
Is it safe for UTF-8? Absolutely. Our tool uses the latest browser standards to ensure that multi-byte UTF-8 characters are decoded correctly.
