Compare behavior across devices without installing diagnostic software.
Compatibility, privacy and limits
The page asks the browser for device permission only after a user action. Recordings and detected content remain in the browser unless you explicitly download or share them.
Camera scanning requires HTTPS and permission. When native QR detection is unavailable, the site tries a local-compatible decoder. Blurry, reflective, or steeply angled images may fail.
Check the result after processing. For file tools, keep the original until the downloaded output has been verified.
