Binary Text Translator

Turn text into binary code and decode binary back into text. Fast, free, and fully private.

What it does

Encode turns every character into its 8-bit binary code, separated by spaces. Decode reads groups of 8 binary digits and turns them back into text. It handles spacing and line breaks in the input automatically.

Worked example

Hi becomes 01001000 01101001. Paste that back in and click Decode to get Hi again.

Frequently asked questions

What is binary code?

Binary is how computers store text: each character becomes a sequence of 8 ones and zeros (bits), one byte per character.

Can it handle emoji?

Emoji are made of multiple code units, so each unit is encoded separately. Decoding them back works as long as the full sequence is preserved.

Is my text sent to a server?

No. The conversion happens entirely in your browser, so nothing leaves your device.
