QR scanner guide
How to use
Click "start camera", allow camera access when prompted, then point your camera at any QR code. The result appears automatically — no button press needed. If the result is a URL the "open link" button activates instantly.
What can it scan?
Any standard QR code — URLs, plain text, WiFi credentials, contact cards (vCard), email addresses, phone numbers and SMS messages. Results are displayed and can be copied with one click.
FAQ
Why does it need camera access?
The scanner uses your device camera to read QR codes in real time. Access is only active while the camera is running.
Is my camera feed stored?
No — everything happens locally in your browser. No video is uploaded or saved anywhere.
QR code not detecting?
Try better lighting, hold the code steady, and make sure the QR code fills most of the camera view.
Can I scan from a photo?
This tool uses live camera only. For scanning from an image file, use a dedicated QR image decoder tool.
