How it works
Add the QR codeStart the camera, drop an image or paste a screenshot. Several images can be read at once.
Check the contentYou see what the code contains before anything happens, including where a link really goes.
Use itCopy the text, open the link, copy the password or save the contact with one click.
No app, no sign-up
Press Use camera, allow access once and point the camera at the code. The back camera is used on phones; on devices with several cameras you can switch between them.
The camera stops as soon as a code is found, so it is never left running in the background.
About QR
A QR code stores text, links, Wi-Fi details or contact cards in a square pattern. Built in error correction lets it be read even when part of it is dirty, folded or covered by a logo.
About TXT
The decoded content is shown as plain text that you can copy. Links, Wi-Fi details, contact cards, email addresses and phone numbers are recognized and shown in a readable form.
Frequently asked questions
The camera does not start. What can I do?
Check that camera access is allowed for this site in your browser settings and that no other app is using the camera. You can always add a photo of the code instead.
Are my images or camera picture uploaded?
No. Images are decoded in your browser and the camera picture is processed frame by frame on your device. Nothing is sent to our servers.
Why does the browser ask for camera access?
The camera is only used while the camera view is open. It stops as soon as a code is found, when you press Stop or when you switch to another tab.
Can it read barcodes too?
This tool reads QR codes. Classic barcodes such as EAN-13 need a different reader.
What if an image has several QR codes?
One code is read per image. Crop the image around the code you need, or add each crop as a separate image.
Does it work offline?
Yes. After you open the page once, reading images and using the camera work without an internet connection.
