Unicode is a standard that assigns a unique code point to virtually every character in every language, plus symbols and emoji.

How do I convert text to Unicode?

Enter text and click Encode. You will see values like U+0048 for "H" or \u{1F600} for emoji when that format is selected.

How do I decode Unicode back to text?

Paste U+ sequences, \u escapes, or hex and click Decode to rebuild the original string.

A numeric ID for a character in the Unicode standard, written as U+ followed by hex (e.g. U+1F600 for 😀).

UTF-8 is the common encoding that stores Unicode code points as one to four bytes. It is used on the web and in most modern files.

Many emoji have code points above U+FFFF, so UTF-8 uses four bytes for those characters.

\uXXXX uses four hex digits (BMP). \u{...} can use variable length for emoji and supplementary characters.

Utility Tools

Encode text to Unicode code points or decode U+, \u, and hex notations back to readable characters.
