Online QR Code Reader
A fast, private QR reader that works on any device, in any browser.
An online QR reader decodes QR codes without any app or account. It works the same on every platform — iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac, Linux and ChromeOS — because everything runs inside the browser you already have. Upload an image, paste a screenshot or use your camera, and the reader reveals the hidden link or data in an instant.
How it works
One reader for every device
Native QR scanning is inconsistent across devices: some cameras support it, others do not, and desktops usually have nothing built in. A browser-based reader removes that fragmentation by giving every device the same reliable experience.
There is nothing to keep updated and no storage used on your device, because the reader is just a web page.
Reads more than links
The reader understands structured QR payloads and presents each with a relevant action — connect to Wi-Fi, add a contact, save a calendar event, send an email or SMS, dial a number, or open a map location.
