QR Code Scanner

Upload a QR code image or scan live with your camera. Decoding happens in your browser — the image never leaves your device.

Choose an image or start the camera. Camera scanning works on HTTPS in modern browsers.

How to use the QR Code Scanner

Click Scan from image to upload a QR screenshot or photo, or Scan with camera on a phone or laptop.

Point the camera at the code until it locks on.

Copy the decoded text or open it directly if it is a link.

Frequently asked questions

Does the camera scanner need internet?

The camera image is processed locally. If your browser has the native BarcodeDetector API, decoding works fully offline after the page loads.

Why is my camera not working?

Browsers require HTTPS and explicit camera permission. Check the permission prompt in your address bar and allow camera access.

Can it scan barcodes too?

This tool targets QR codes. Some browsers’ built-in detectors also read common 1D barcodes automatically.
