Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about the free online hash generator.
Type or paste your text above and the hash updates instantly for the selected algorithm.
It supports MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384 and SHA-512, shown in hex or Base64.
Paste your text, select MD5, and the 32-character MD5 hash appears instantly.
No. All hashing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript.
A hash function maps any input to a fixed-size string of characters, useful for checksums and
integrity checks.
MD5 and SHA-1 are no longer recommended for security; use SHA-256 or SHA-512 for
cryptographic purposes.
Yes, but for real password storage use a dedicated slow algorithm such as bcrypt or Argon2
with a salt.
SHA-256 is widely used for file integrity checks, digital signatures and blockchain.
Yes. The tool is fully responsive and works in any modern browser on desktop, tablet and
phone.
The only practical limit is the amount of memory available on your device.
