Frequently asked questions

Is this the same as encoding a full URL?

This uses component encoding (encodeURIComponent). Encoding an entire URL including :// may over-encode separators — encode parameter values instead.

Is my input uploaded?

No. Conversion runs in your browser. Nothing is sent to a NeedAnyTool server for these tools.
