Frequently asked questions

Will a QR link open automatically?

No. Decoded content is displayed as text only. You can copy links or ordinary text.

Can it read every QR in a multi-code image?

No. It shows the first QR successfully decoded. Cropping around the code you want and choosing that image again may help.

Do I need to upload my file?

No. Your selected file is processed in your browser. No account is required, and the original file stays unchanged.
