What is QR Code Scanning?
QR code scanning is the process of reading and decoding the data stored in a QR code image. Modern scanning algorithms analyze the image to locate the three finder patterns (the large squares in the corners), determine the code's orientation and version, apply error correction, and extract the encoded data. This tool performs all of this processing directly in your browser โ no app installation or server upload required.
How to Scan a QR Code
Upload an image containing a QR code by dragging it onto the drop zone, clicking to browse, or pasting from clipboard (Ctrl+V).
The tool automatically detects and decodes the QR code. If the decoded data is a URL, a clickable link is shown.
Use the camera button to scan QR codes in real-time using your device camera โ useful for scanning codes from screens or printed materials.
