Frequently asked questions
- Are my files uploaded to a server?
- No. This tool runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript — your files never leave your device.
- Does it verify the signature?
- No — it decodes and displays the token. Signature verification requires the secret/public key and should be done server-side.
- Is it safe to paste a real token?
- Decoding happens locally in your browser and the token is never transmitted. Still, avoid sharing production tokens anywhere.
