QR code checker
Scan a QR code with your camera, or choose a photo or screenshot of one. The code is read in your browser: nothing is uploaded and no lookups are made. You see the full content and some automated signals before you decide to open anything.
Information only: these tools show what they find and can be wrong. They can't tell you that a link, QR code or password can be trusted.
What the code contains
Type:
Automated signals, not a verdict; can be wrong.
Before you open a link from a QR code
- Check that the host name is the one you expect, letter by letter.
- Be careful with QR codes stuck on top of posters, parking meters or menus.
- If a page asks you to pay or sign in, go to the site yourself instead.

Who called me? Check a phone number
We never show who owns a number. Private owners' names are personal data, and we hold no directory.
Password checker
See how strong a password is, and whether it appears in known data breaches. The password never leaves your device.
