Decode URL-Encoded Strings
URL decoding converts percent-encoded text back to readable characters. If you've copied a URL with %20, %26, or other encoded characters, paste it here to see the human-readable version.
How URL Decoding Works
Each percent-encoded sequence (%XX) is replaced with the corresponding character. %20 becomes a space, %26 becomes &, %3D becomes =, and so on. This tool also handles plus signs (+) as spaces, which is common in HTML form submissions (application/x-www-form-urlencoded).
