Frequently Asked Questions
How do I scan a QR code with my webcam?
Allow camera access when prompted. Point your webcam at the QR code. The scanner detects and decodes it in real time. Hold the QR code steady within the viewfinder frame. Results appear instantly once the code is recognized.
Why is my camera not detecting the QR code?
Ensure good lighting without glare. Hold the QR code flat and steady. Adjust distance (not too close, not too far). Clean your camera lens. Check that the QR code is not too small or damaged. Try increasing screen brightness if scanning from a display.
Can the scanner read QR codes from a phone screen?
Yes. Display the QR code on your phone screen and hold it in front of your webcam. Increase phone brightness to maximum. Avoid screen reflections. The scanner reads QR codes from any surface including screens, paper, and products.
Does the QR scanner store my scanned data?
The scanner processes everything locally in your browser. No data is sent to any server. Your scan history is stored only in your browser's local storage and can be cleared at any time. Camera feed is not recorded or transmitted.
What is the difference between the QR scanner and QR reader?
The QR scanner uses your live camera feed for real-time scanning. The QR reader decodes QR codes from uploaded image files. Use the scanner for physical QR codes in front of you. Use the reader for QR code images saved on your device.
