How to use QR code scanner
QR scanner decodes a QR code from an image or screenshot and shows you exactly what it contains before you act on it — a safe way to check a code you don't trust.
Step by step
- 1Drop a photo or screenshot containing the QR code.
- 2The code is decoded locally, in your browser. Read the decoded content — check the destination before opening any link.
- 3Copy the result if you need it.
What to expect
- Standards-compliant codes that scan with any phone camera.
- SVG output for print, PNG for screens.
- No expiry, no tracking redirect, no account — the code encodes exactly what you typed.
Common use cases
- Menus, posters, name badges and event signage.
- Linking a physical product to a page or manual.
- Sharing Wi-Fi credentials or contact details.
- Labelling inventory, assets or classroom materials.
