QR code reader & safety check.

Point your camera or drop an image. The code is decoded right here in your browser — you read the full link, check it for scam signals, and copy it before deciding to open anything. Nothing is uploaded.

Decoded
Scan or upload a code and its contents will appear here — fully readable, never auto-opened.

Read first. Open later — if at all.

A QR code is just a picture; you can't tell where it leads by looking. "Quishing" scams hide malicious links inside codes on parking meters, fake invoices and flyers. This reader shows you the real destination so you can judge it before you ever tap through. Need to make a code instead? Use the QR code generator.

  • Local decoding — the camera feed and any image you drop are processed entirely on your device.
  • Link safety signals — for web links we flag no-HTTPS, raw IP addresses, embedded logins, look-alike punycode domains and shorteners that hide the true target.
  • Reads every format — Wi-Fi credentials, contact cards, email, SMS and phone codes are parsed into plain fields.
