Frequently Asked Questions

Is my JSON data sent to any server?

No, absolutely not. All JSON processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your data never leaves your device - you can verify this by disconnecting from the internet.

What's the difference between Prettify and Minify?

Prettify adds indentation and line breaks for human readability. Minify removes all unnecessary whitespace, making JSON compact for efficient storage or API transmission.

Can I format large JSON files?

Yes, the tool handles large JSON files limited only by your browser's memory. For files over 100MB, performance may vary depending on your device.
