How to use Unicode Decoder

Paste \u escape sequences, and the tool decodes them back to readable text.

Frequently asked questions

What formats does it support?

\uXXXX (JS/JSON), \UXXXXXXXX (Python), \XXXXXX (CSS), and &#xXXXX; (HTML hex) formats.

Can it decode emoji?

Yes — \u{1F600} or 😀 (surrogate pair) for 😀 are both supported.

What if I mix encoded and plain text?

Only the escape sequences are decoded; surrounding plain text is left as-is.
