Frequently asked questions
Component vs full URL?
Component (encodeURIComponent) also encodes / ? & = — use it for a single parameter value. Full URL keeps the URL structure.
Why do I get a malformed URI error?
A % that is not followed by two hex digits can't be decoded.
Is it private?
No. Everything runs inside your browser. Your files and text never leave your device and nothing is stored on our servers.
