About QR Global — QR Code Generator & Scanner

QR Global — QR Code Generator & Scanner Generate and scan QR codes right from your browser, in seconds — no account, no sign-up, no registration, ever required. GENERATE QR CODES Quick QR — one click, current page Click the extension icon and QR Global instantly creates a QR code for the URL of the page you're currently viewing. Perfect for sharing a link with your phone, printing it on a flyer, or handing it to someone across the room without typing out a long URL. Download the result as a PNG with a single click — no watermarks, no restrictions. Custom QR — your own data Switch to the Custom tab to generate a QR code for anything else: Plain text — notes, messages, instructions Email address — opens the recipient's mail app pre-filled when scanned Phone number — opens the dialer when scanned Wi-Fi credentials — network name and password, so guests can join your network by scanning instead of typing a password Adjust the output size with a slider to match exactly what you need, whether that's a small icon or a large poster-ready code. SCAN QR CODES Ever spotted a QR code on a laptop screen, a presentation slide, or a webpage — but your phone was in another room? QR Global solves that. Right-click any image containing a QR code, anywhere on the web, and select "Scan this QR code" from the context menu. The extension decodes it instantly, right there on the page: No photo needed. No camera, no phone, no app switching. No upload. The image is decoded entirely inside your browser — nothing is ever sent to any server, ours or anyone else's. Instant results. A small card appears showing what the code contains. If it's a link, open it with one click or copy it to your clipboard. If it's anything else — text, contact info, Wi-Fi details — copy it directly. Works everywhere. Scanning works on images hosted on the same site or on a completely different domain (for example, a QR code embedded from a CDN). If the image doesn't contain a readable QR code, or fails to load, you'll see a clear message explaining what happened — never a silent failure. MY CODES (OPTIONAL) Already have a QR Global account? Enter your existing API key in the My Codes tab to view QR codes you've previously created and saved on the QR Global website, right from the extension popup. This is simply a convenient window into your existing account — QR Global's core purpose remains generating and scanning QR codes, nothing more. PRIVACY BY DESIGN No browsing history is tracked. No analytics or usage data is collected. QR code scanning happens 100% locally in your browser — the image you scan is never uploaded or transmitted anywhere. The extension only accesses the specific image you right-click to scan, or the URL of the tab you're actively generating a code for. It does not read or monitor any other part of your browsing. No account or personal information is required to use any core feature. WHY QR GLOBAL Most QR tools force you to choose: a generator that's clunky to reach, or a scanner that demands a phone and a camera app. QR Global puts both in your browser toolbar and your right-click menu — fast, private, and free to use without ever creating an account. Whether you're sharing a link at a meeting, setting up a guest Wi-Fi network, or trying to read a code that's stuck on someone else's screen, QR Global gets it done in one click.
