FAQ

What is Base32 used for?

Base32 encodes binary data as uppercase letters and digits 2-7, avoiding characters that are easy to confuse. It's commonly used for TOTP secret keys, DNS records and filesystem-safe identifiers.

Is this the standard Base32 alphabet?

Yes, this tool uses the RFC 4648 alphabet (A-Z, 2-7) with = padding, the most widely used Base32 variant.

Is my text sent to a server?

No. Encoding and decoding happen locally in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
