Is my camera feed sent to a server?

No. All scanning happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. No video or images are uploaded.

Can I scan from a screenshot?

Yes! You can upload an image file (PNG, JPG, etc.) to scan a QR code from it.

Why do I need to grant camera permissions?

The tool needs access to your camera to capture the video feed for scanning. You can also choose to use the file upload feature if you prefer not to use the camera.
