QR code URL checker

See exactly where a QR code goes before you scan it. Decoded in your browser, nothing uploaded.

Not sure where a QR code leads? Upload the image and this tool decodes it locally and shows you the full destination URL, so you can read it before you ever open it. The image never leaves your device.

It's a quick safety check for a code on a flyer, a parking meter, or an email. If the link looks off, don't open it. And if you want to make codes whose destination you can change after they're printed, that's what TangoQR is for.

How it works

  1. 1

    Upload the QR image

    Choose or drag in a photo or screenshot of the QR code.

  2. 2

    Read the link

    The decoded URL appears so you can check the domain before visiting.

  3. 3

    Decide

    Open it only if the destination looks legitimate.

Need a code you can change later?

A QR code made here is static, so print it and the link is frozen. A TangoQR code points at a redirect you control, so you can repoint it after it's printed, no reprint. Free to start, no signup for your first code.
