QR Code Reader
Upload a photo or image with a QR code to see what's inside right away — a link, a phone number, plain text… no need to scan it with your phone.
How to read a QR code
- Add an image containing a QR code (a screenshot, a photo, a saved image…).
- The tool finds and reads the QR code in it automatically.
- See the content, copy it, or open it if it's a link.
