How this QR decoder works

Client-side decoding

The processing logic runs entirely on your device using your browser's capabilities.

Privacy first

Your images are never uploaded to our servers or stored in any database.

Works offline

Once the page loads, you can decode images even without an internet connection.

Common uses for QR codes in asset management

  • Asset identification and labeling
  • Equipment checkouts and returns
  • Verifying custody trails
  • Linking to maintenance records
  • Faster inventory audits and reconciliation

FAQ

Does this upload my image?

No. All decoding happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your images effectively never leave your device.

What QR formats are supported?

This tool supports standard QR codes (Model 2), which are most commonly used for asset labels and inventory tags.

Why can’t it read my code?

Ensure the image is well-lit, in focus, and the QR code is not damaged or obstructed. High contrast between the code and background helps.
