What is a Base64 to image converter?
A Base64 to image converter decodes an image payload back into a previewable and downloadable file. It supports full data:image/...;base64,... URLs and raw Base64 strings.
How to use it
- Paste a Base64 image string or data URL.
- Use auto-detect for common image formats, or choose the MIME type manually.
- Preview and download the decoded image.
Example
Input: data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAA...
Output: a downloadable PNG image.
Common mistakes
- Raw Base64 does not tell the browser the image type.
- SVG may need the SVG option if auto-detection cannot identify it.
- Huge Base64 images are slower and larger than normal image files.

Privacy and security
Image decoding runs locally in your browser. Treat images from unknown sources cautiously.
