Hex to Text — FAQ

Is my data safe?
Yes. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is uploaded to any server.
Is it really free?
Every Social-X tool is free, unlimited and works offline.
What happens to non-ASCII characters?
They are decoded back from their UTF-8 byte sequence. If the output looks wrong, the bytes may have been captured from a different encoding.
Can it decode a binary file?
It decodes bytes into text. Anything that is genuinely binary rather than encoded text will produce meaningless output.
