How do I scan a QR code from an image?

Switch to the Upload Image tab, then select a photo or drag and drop an image containing a QR code. The tool decodes it instantly in your browser and shows the result.

Can I scan a QR code with my camera?

Yes. Open the Camera tab and click Start camera. Point your device's camera at the QR code and it will be decoded automatically. Your camera feed never leaves your device.

Is my data private and secure?

Absolutely. All scanning happens entirely in your browser using the native BarcodeDetector API. No image or camera data is ever uploaded to a server or stored anywhere.

Which browsers are supported?

The scanner relies on the built-in BarcodeDetector API, which is available in the latest Chrome and Edge on desktop and Android. If your browser does not support it, you'll see a notice and scanning will be disabled.

Scanning Tips

Get a clean read every time.

Use a Clear Image

Sharp, well-lit images with the full QR code visible decode far more reliably than blurry crops.

Steady the Camera

Hold your device still and center the QR code in the frame. Give the camera a moment to focus.

Mind the Lighting

Avoid glare and harsh reflections on printed or on-screen QR codes for the fastest detection.

Stay Private

Everything runs locally in your browser. No image or camera stream is ever uploaded to a server.
