About this tool
The scanner uses your browser's built-in barcode reader where available, and the open-source jsQR library otherwise. The camera image is processed on your device and the camera turns off as soon as a code is found.
Free to use. Your inputs are processed in your browser and are not sent to our servers. Results are for general information; see the disclaimer.
Frequently asked questions
Is the camera video recorded or uploaded?
No. Frames are read on your device only and nothing is recorded or uploaded. The camera stops as soon as a code is found.
Why won't it read my code?
Make sure the whole code is in view, in focus and well lit. Very small or damaged codes may need a clearer photo.
Is it safe to open links from QR codes?
Check the address first. QR codes can point to fake websites, which is why this tool shows the link before you open it.
