Hash text

Paste text and copy the hex. SHA-1 is marked as outdated.

HashOn this device

The hash is computed with the browser’s Web Crypto API and shown as lowercase hex. SHA-256 is the default. SHA-1 remains available because some old checksums still use it, and the page says it is outdated.

How to use it

  1. Paste the text.
  2. Pick the algorithm.
  3. Copy the hex or download it.

Good to know

  • An empty box is not hashed. A hash of an empty string is a real value, but it is easy to confuse with a skipped step.
  • This is not a password store and it does not add a salt.
  • The text stays in this tab.

Questions

Is SHA-1 safe?

No, not for security. Use SHA-256 or stronger unless you are matching a checksum that is already SHA-1.

Why is the hex lowercase?

That is the usual form for checksums. The letters a–f are the same value either way.
