Check the result

Review the decoded text or URL first. Only open a web address when you recognize and trust it.

Private by design

Your image stays in your browser.

The QR image is processed locally with browser technology. GoQR does not upload or save the selected image. The decoded result remains visible only on your current page.

Safer QR scanning

  • Check the domain before opening a link.
  • Do not enter passwords after scanning an unexpected code.
  • Be careful with shortened or misspelled domains.
  • Close the page if the destination looks suspicious.
