Frequently asked questions
How does text-to-binary conversion work?
Each character is encoded to its UTF-8 byte(s), and each byte is written as 8 binary digits (bits). For example, 'A' is 01000001.
Can I decode binary back to text?
Yes. Paste binary (with or without spaces) and click Decode. The tool groups the bits into bytes and converts them back to readable UTF-8 text.
Does it support emoji and accents?
Yes. Because it uses UTF-8, characters beyond plain ASCII — like é or 😀 — are encoded across multiple bytes and decode correctly.
