Encode and decode bitmap object in base64 string in Android

public static String encodeToBase64(Bitmap image, Bitmap.CompressFormat compressFormat, int quality)
{
    ByteArrayOutputStream byteArrayOS = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    image.compress(compressFormat, quality, byteArrayOS);
    return Base64.encodeToString(byteArrayOS.toByteArray(), Base64.DEFAULT);
}

public static Bitmap decodeBase64(String input)
{
    byte[] decodedBytes = Base64.decode(input, 0);
    return BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(decodedBytes, 0, decodedBytes.length);
}

Example usage:

String myBase64Image = encodeToBase64(myBitmap, Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100);
Bitmap myBitmapAgain = decodeBase64(myBase64Image);
