About binary to text converter
Paste groups of 0s and 1s and the tool turns them back into readable text, assuming UTF-8 encoding.
Getting it to work
- Each byte should be eight digits; groups are separated by spaces.
- Remove any other characters from the input.
- If the output looks like random symbols, the bytes were probably not UTF-8 text.
A worked example
The binary 01000001 01000010 01000011 is 65, 66 and 67, which spell ABC. Binary for 'Hello' is 01001000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111.
Troubleshooting
- Make sure every group has exactly eight digits, adding leading zeros if needed.
- If you see strange symbols, the data may use another encoding or may not be text at all.
- Spaces between bytes are fine, and so are line breaks.
- A stray digit anywhere shifts every byte after it, so recount the digits if the result looks wrong.
