QR Code Decoder

Sometimes you have a QR code in an image file — a screenshot, a document scan, or a marketing material — and you need to read what it encodes without pointing your phone's camera at it. Most online QR decoders require you to upload your image to their server, which is a privacy concern when the QR code contains sensitive data like authentication tokens, private URLs, or personal information.

This QR code decoder processes the image entirely in your browser using the jsQR library and HTML Canvas API. The image is decoded locally and the encoded content is displayed in a text editor for easy copying.

How to Use the QR Code Decoder

  1. Drop a QR code image onto the drop zone or click to browse files.
  2. The image is processed locally in your browser.
  3. View the decoded content in the output editor.
  4. Copy the decoded text for use in your workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is my image uploaded to a server?

    No. The image is decoded entirely in your browser using the jsQR library and Canvas API. No image data leaves your device.

  • What image formats are supported?

    The decoder supports JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, and most common image formats that can be rendered in a browser.

  • Can it decode multiple QR codes from one image?

    Currently, the tool detects and decodes the first QR code found in the image. For best results, crop the image to contain a single QR code.
