Form URL decode

Client

Reverse form encoding—+ to space then percent decode.

About Form URL decode

Decode application/x-www-form-urlencoded text. The interactive transform on this page runs in your browser tab—Toolcore does not need your paste for the core operation described above.

How to use this page

Paste or type in the main workspace, run the primary action from the toolbar, then copy or download the result. Use Load example when the page offers it, or URL prefill (?q= / ?qb=) so agents and tickets open the same input.

hello world=a&b
