Frequently Asked Questions
How does in-browser QR code scanning work without uploading my camera feed?
Scanning uses client-side HTML5 getUserMedia video streams and the native BarcodeDetector or jsQR canvas processing. All frames are decoded locally in your browser memory.
Can I scan a QR code from an image or screenshot without a webcam?
Yes. You can drag and drop or upload any PNG, JPG, or WebP screenshot directly to decode the embedded QR payload without needing a camera.
What should I do if my browser cannot access the camera?
Check your browser site permissions by clicking the padlock or tune icon in the address bar, and ensure Camera permission is set to "Allow".
