QR code link checker: check the destination before visiting it

Use the QR upload button in the checker to read a QR destination and inspect the link before visiting it yourself.
01

Why QR links are easy to trust too quickly

A QR code on a flyer, parcel, parking meter, restaurant table, or email can look official even when the destination is unknown. Checking the URL first gives you a chance to notice redirects or suspicious behavior.

02

Check the page before giving permissions

A QR destination normally should not need camera, microphone, clipboard, or location access unless the purpose is obvious. Permission prompts are important context in a behavior report.

03

Watch for payment and sign-in forms

Fake payment pages and sign-in forms often depend on urgency. If a QR destination asks for credentials or card details, verify the domain manually before continuing.

04

Keep private QR codes private

Do not upload QR codes that contain private login tokens, account access links, Wi-Fi passwords, or confidential documents. The public checker is intended for public or shareable links.
