About Base64 to Image
When you come across a long Base64 string and need the actual picture it represents, decoding it by hand is impossible. This tool takes that text and rebuilds the real image file you can save and use.
Paste your Base64 string (with or without the data URI prefix) and download the decoded image. It's perfect for pulling images out of code, config files or API responses. The decoding happens locally in your browser, so the data never touches a server, and nothing is kept after you grab your file.
Common uses
- Recovering an image hidden in a Base64 data URI
- Extracting graphics from code or config files
- Saving images returned by an API as Base64
- Checking what a Base64 string actually contains

FAQ
Do I need to include the data:image prefix?
It works either way. You can paste the full data URI or just the raw Base64 string and the tool will decode it.
What format will the decoded image be?
The output matches whatever format the original data encoded, such as PNG, JPG or GIF.
Is my Base64 data sent anywhere?
No. Decoding happens entirely in your browser, so the data stays on your device.
How do I decode a Base64 image?
Paste your Base64 string (with or without the data:image/...;base64, prefix) and click Convert. The image will be decoded and ready to download.
What if my Base64 string has the data URL prefix?
No problem — ToolHub automatically strips the data:image/...;base64, prefix and decodes the raw Base64 data.
What formats can I download the decoded image as?
The output format depends on the original encoded image. You can download it in its original format.
Can I use Base64 to Image on mobile?
Yes — ToolHub is fully responsive and works on iPhone, Android, tablets and all modern browsers. No app install needed.
