What is the QR Code & Barcode Scanner?
Scan a QR code or barcode without installing an app. Start the camera and hold the code inside the frame, or drop in a photo or screenshot — you can even paste an image from your clipboard. The tool decodes QR codes, EAN and UPC product barcodes, Code 128, Data Matrix and more using your browser's built-in barcode detector, with a QR-only fallback for browsers that lack it.
Every result is labelled by type — web link, Wi-Fi network, contact card, email, phone number, SMS, location, calendar event or product number — and shown in full so you can inspect it before doing anything. Links are never opened automatically, and the Open link button shows the destination domain. Scanning happens entirely on your device; no images or results are uploaded.

Questions people ask
Is it safe to scan any QR code?
Scanning is safe; opening the link is where the risk is. This tool shows the address first and never opens it for you.
Why does it read only QR codes in my browser?
Firefox and Safari lack the built-in barcode detector, so a QR-only fallback is used. Chrome, Edge and Android read many barcode types.
Are my images or camera video uploaded?
No. Everything is processed in your browser.
Can I scan a code from a screenshot?
Yes — use Scan from an image, or paste it with Ctrl/Cmd+V.
What barcode types are supported?
QR, EAN-13/8, UPC-A/E, Code 128/39/93, ITF, Codabar, Data Matrix, PDF417 and Aztec where your browser supports them.
