What is a QR Code Reader?
A QR code reader decodes the information stored in QR (Quick Response) codes. QR codes are two-dimensional barcodes that can store various types of data including URLs, text, contact information, WiFi credentials, and more.
This tool allows you to scan QR codes using your device's camera for real-time decoding, or upload images containing QR codes. The decoded content is displayed instantly and can be copied to your clipboard.
All scanning and decoding happens locally in your browser. Your camera feed and uploaded images are never sent to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security.
Features

Image Upload
Upload screenshots or photos containing QR codes. Simply drag and drop an image or click to select. Supports PNG, JPG, GIF, and other common image formats.
URL Detection
When a QR code contains a URL, it's automatically detected and highlighted. You can click the link to open it in a new tab safely.
Scan History
Recent scans are saved during your session. Easily view and re-select previously decoded QR codes without scanning again.
