Encode text to Base32 or decode Base32 back to text instantly. Supports RFC 4648 standard.
What is Base32 encoding?
Base32 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data using 32 ASCII characters (A-Z and 2-7) as defined in RFC 4648.
When should I use Base32 instead of Base64?
Base32 is useful when you need case-insensitive encoding, or when the data may be processed by systems that are not 8-bit clean (like some email systems).
What is the padding character in Base32?
Base32 uses "=" as the padding character to make the encoded output length a multiple of 8 characters, as required by RFC 4648.
Is Base32 encoding reversible?
Yes, Base32 encoding is fully reversible. You can decode any valid Base32 string back to its original binary data without loss.
