Convert text to UTF-8 bytes in binary, hexadecimal or decimal notation and decode them back. Supports different separators and multi-byte characters like Cyrillic or emoji.
Bytes
Frequently asked questions
Why is one Cyrillic letter two bytes?
UTF-8 encodes Cyrillic with two bytes, and emoji with four. The converter shows the actual byte sequence, so ASCII text takes one byte per character.
How do I decode binary back to text?
Switch to decode mode, paste bytes (separated by spaces, commas or newlines) and choose the right format — binary must be 8 bits per byte.
What is the difference from ASCII conversion?
ASCII only covers 128 English characters. UTF-8 is a superset and encodes any Unicode text, which is what this tool uses.
