What is qr code decoder?

Read the text or URL hidden in any QR code image. Drop in a screenshot, a photo, or a saved QR, and get the decoded payload.

The tool detects the payload type and offers the right follow-up: open a URL, compose an email, or copy the Wi-Fi credentials. The whole process runs locally — the image never leaves the page.

How to use it

  1. Choose an image

    JPG, PNG, or WebP. Screenshots and photos both work.

  2. See the result

    The decoded text appears with a label for the payload type (URL, email, Wi-Fi, vCard, plain text).

  3. Copy or open

    Copy the text, or open the URL directly. Wi-Fi and vCard payloads get a copy-credentials button.

Examples

Decode a screenshot of a QR code

A screenshot from a chat, an email, or a website often contains a QR code. Drop the screenshot in and get the URL or text in one click.

A screenshot of a QR code linking to https://example.com/signup

Result: Detected: URL. Decoded: "https://example.com/signup". One click to copy or open.

Read a Wi-Fi QR from a sticker or a card

Many routers, cafes, and offices print a QR code that connects a phone to Wi-Fi without typing the password. Drop the QR in and get the network name and password ready to copy.

A photo of a "WIFI:T:WPA;S:CoffeeShop;P:hello123;;" QR code

Result: Detected: Wi-Fi. Network: CoffeeShop. Password: hello123.

Decode a vCard QR (contact card)

Business cards increasingly ship as QR codes. Drop the QR in and the vCard is decoded to plain text you can save or paste into a contact manager.

A QR code containing a vCard with name, phone, and email

Result: Detected: vCard. Decoded plain text shows the full contact block.
