- No server upload required
- Works completely offline
- No login or signup needed
How It Works
Enter text or upload a file to generate its MD5 hash. MD5 (Message Digest 5) creates a unique 32-character hexadecimal fingerprint of your data. The same input always produces the same hash. Useful for verifying file downloads, checking data integrity, or creating checksums. Upload a file and the tool reads it in your browser to generate the hash — files are never uploaded to a server. The MD5 hash is displayed in hexadecimal format (32 characters). Copy to clipboard for quick use. Note: MD5 is not cryptographically secure for passwords or sensitive data (use SHA-256 instead), but perfect for checksums and file verification. All hashing happens in your browser using crypto-js library.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is MD5 used for?
MD5 generates checksums for file verification and data integrity. It's commonly used to verify downloaded files match the original.
Is MD5 secure for passwords?
No! MD5 is not secure for passwords or cryptographic purposes. Use it only for checksums and file verification.
Can I hash large files?
Yes! Files are read in your browser to generate the hash. Very large files (>100MB) may take a moment to process.
Will the same text always produce the same hash?
Yes! MD5 is deterministic — the same input always produces the same 32-character hash.
What's the hash length?
MD5 hashes are always exactly 32 hexadecimal characters (128 bits).
