QR Code Scanner

Yes — if a straightforward read doesn't work on the first try, several image enhancement passes run automatically (contrast boost, sharpening, adaptive thresholding), specifically to handle blurry, low-contrast, or partially damaged codes.

URLs, plain text, contact cards (vCard), WiFi credentials, email, and phone/SMS links.

QR codes are built with Reed-Solomon error correction, which stores the data with redundancy — depending on the correction level used when it was made, up to 30% of the code can be dirty, torn, or covered by a logo and it'll still decode correctly.

Both — alongside QR codes, it reads standard retail and product barcode formats like UPC, EAN, Code 128, PDF417, and Data Matrix, using the same scan.

Yes — every code in the image gets detected and listed separately, not just the first one it finds.

Both — switch to camera mode to scan live with your front or back camera, or upload an existing photo or screenshot instead.

URLs, plain text, contact cards (vCard), WiFi credentials, email links, and phone/SMS links — each one is labeled by type so you know what you're looking at before you use it.

Uploaded — decoding runs on the server, so your photo is uploaded to do the work, then automatically deleted right after, not stored or shared.

Yes — every result has a one-click copy button right next to it.

Yes — camera scanning works directly in a mobile browser on both, using your phone's own camera.

No — no account, no premium tier, and no daily cap. Everything on this site is free.

Yes — upload a photo or screenshot of the code, or use camera mode if your laptop has a webcam. Either way works entirely in the browser, no phone required.

Yes — camera mode uses whatever camera your browser has access to, including a laptop's built-in or external webcam, the same way it works with a phone's camera.

Just open this page in your browser — Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari — on Windows, Mac, or Linux. Nothing to install; grant camera access or upload an image and you're scanning.

Take a screenshot of it (Windows: Win+Shift+S, Mac: Cmd+Shift+4), then upload that screenshot here — decoding works the same as with any other image.

Yes — upload mode doesn't need a camera; any saved photo, screenshot, or downloaded image containing a QR code works.

Upload a photo or screenshot of the code here — the decoded link is shown as plain text, so you can read where it points before you open or share it. It's a sensible check for a code on a poster, flyer, parcel or message from someone you don't know.

A barcode is a row of vertical bars that stores a short number or code and is read along one direction. A QR code is a square grid of modules that can hold far more — links, text, WiFi logins, contacts — and can be read from any angle. This scanner reads both.
