Upload a QR code image or use your camera to scan — decode the content instantly and see the full text, URL, or data embedded in any QR code.
Read and decode QR codes from images · upload or drag and drop · BarcodeDetector API · client-side only
Drop a QR code image file (PNG, JPG, WebP), or activate your camera to scan a physical QR code or screen in real time.
The QR code is decoded in your browser and the full embedded content is displayed — a URL, text, contact details, Wi-Fi credentials, or any other encoded data.
Copy the decoded text to clipboard or open a URL directly from the result.
PNG, JPG, JPEG, and WebP images all work. The QR code should be clearly visible, reasonably well-lit, and not excessively blurry. Very small or low-resolution QR codes may fail to decode — if an upload fails, try a higher-resolution version of the same image.
QR codes include error correction data that allows them to be decoded even when part of the code is damaged, scratched, or covered — up to 30% of the code at the highest error correction level (H). The reader leverages this redundancy and can often decode codes that appear visually imperfect.
URLs (the most common), plain text, email addresses, phone numbers, SMS messages, Wi-Fi credentials, vCard contacts, geographic coordinates, and app store links. The decoded result shows the raw content — if it’s a URL, a clickable link is shown; if it’s a vCard, the contact details are displayed.

Reading a QR code on your phone is easy — but reading one from a screenshot, a PDF, a design file, or an image on your desktop usually requires a workaround. This tool bridges that gap: upload any image containing a QR code and the decoder extracts the embedded content immediately. It also supports live camera access for scanning physical QR codes from a webcam, which is useful for quickly reading codes during testing or at a desk without reaching for a phone. Everything runs in your browser — camera access stays on your device, images are never uploaded.
All decoding runs in your browser. Images and camera feeds are never uploaded or transmitted to any server.
