Frequently Asked Questions
Learn more about camera privacy, supported payload structures, and offline security.
Is my camera feed or uploaded image kept private?
Yes, complete privacy is guaranteed. All image parsing and video frame analysis occur strictly inside your web browser via HTML5 Canvas and jsQR. No video feeds, images, or decoded text are ever uploaded to any server or third-party database.
Can I scan QR codes directly from desktop screenshots?
Yes, you can simply take a screenshot with your operating system shortcuts and paste it directly anywhere on this web page using Ctrl+V or Command+V. The tool extracts image pixels from the clipboard and decodes it immediately.
Which data formats and payload types are recognized?
The scanner automatically classifies standard URLs, Wi-Fi network configurations (WPA/WPA2), UPI payment addresses, email links (mailto:), direct telephone dialers (tel:), vCard contacts, and plain alphanumeric text.
What should I do if the camera struggles in low light?
Ensure adequate ambient lighting and avoid severe screen glare when scanning digital monitors. Center the QR pattern inside the green viewfinder guidelines and hold the camera steady to allow the decoder algorithm to capture sharp contrast.
Does this scanner require software installation or account registration?
No installation or registration is needed. The tool runs on any modern web browser on mobile phones, tablets, and laptops without extensions or user logins.
