In this tutorial, we show you how to read QR Code using Google Camera app. Generally, smartphones are used for reading QR code (Quick Response Code) and to read the QR code you will require a special QR code reader…
You’ve probably seen QR (Quick Response) codes on web pages, email signatures, magazines, product packaging, brochures, and many other locations. Usually mobile phones are used to read QR code (to read the QR code you will require an application on your phone), but sometimes you want to decode QR directly from your web browser, without your phone.
Nowadays, QR codes can be seen everywhere – on any product, web pages, on your mail or even on television shows, which provide more details about products, services, or provide as a link to a webpage, images or link to downloadable mobile apps. Unfortunately, cyber-criminals are also using QR codes for phishing and infecting your device with malware. To help you, Symantec has released a QR Code Reader for Android and iOS called Norton Snap that not only read QR codes but can also block dangerous QR codes and unsafe websites.
Previously I had posted few articles here about QR code, such as what is QR code, how to read it, how to create custom QR Code and difference between classic Bar code and QR Code. If you are looking for a free, custom QR code generator with advanced features, just try Unitag online generator.
A QR code (Quick Response code) is similar to classic barcode, but it can handle more data than the barcode and is readable by high-end mobile phones with proper QR code processing app like Barcode Scanner (for Android) and QR Reader (for iPhone).
