URL Encoder: questions people ask
encodeURIComponent or encodeURI?
Use component mode for a single query value or path segment. Use full-URL mode when encoding a complete URL so its separators are kept.
Should spaces be + or %20?
%20 is always valid. + means space only in form-encoded query strings; tick that option for HTML form data.
Is my data uploaded when I use the URL Encoder?
No. The URL Encoder runs entirely in your web browser, so your text and numbers stay on your device and work even on a slow connection.
Does the URL Encoder work on iPhone, Android and Mac?
Yes. The URL Encoder runs in any modern browser (Safari, Chrome, Edge or Firefox) on iPhone, iPad, Android phones, Mac, Windows and Chromebook. There is no app to install.
Is the URL Encoder free?
Yes. The URL Encoder is free with no signup, no watermark and no daily limit.
