Base64 to Image: free online, fast and secure
APIs, databases and HTML files often store images as Base64 text. To check what an image actually looks like, or to save it as a file, you need to decode it. This tool does that instantly in your browser.
Paste a full data URI or just the Base64 part. The format is detected automatically from the data, the image is previewed with its dimensions and size, and you can download it with the right extension.
How to use Base64 to Image
- Paste the Base64. Paste a data:image/... URI or a raw Base64 string into the box.
- Preview. The image appears with its format, width, height and size. Invalid data shows a clear error.
- Download. Save the decoded image as a file.

Good to know
A typical phone photo today is 3000–4000 pixels wide and 2–6 MB in size, far more than WhatsApp, websites or government forms need. Most screens show images at 1000–2000 pixels wide, so reducing size rarely makes a visible difference. Knowing this helps you get better results from Base64 to Image: choose the right format for the job, keep the original file as a backup, and only make images as large as the place where they will be shown.
