QR Code Checker

Find out what a QR code holds and whether it will scan, even after print blur. No sign-up, and nothing leaves your browser.

Check a QR code from a picture

Choose a photo or screenshot, paste one with Ctrl+V or ⌘V, or drop it here. Any QR code works, even one made elsewhere. It never leaves this device.

  • Nothing uploaded

    The picture is read on this device and never sent anywhere.

  • Links checked first

    See the real address before opening a link. Script links are blocked.

  • Test durability too

    The Arcade knocks holes in a code to show how much damage it survives.
