Convert text to binary and binary back to text.
About the Text to Binary
The Text to Binary converter turns text into its 8-bit binary representation and decodes binary back into text. It is useful for learning how characters are stored, for puzzles, or for inspecting how a string breaks down byte by byte.
Frequently asked questions
Each character is mapped to its numeric character code, and that number is written in 8-bit binary. Stringing those together gives the binary version of the whole text.
Decoding expects groups of 8 binary digits separated by spaces. Missing digits, stray characters or the wrong grouping will stop it from reconstructing the text.
