Can I scan from a photo upload?

Yes. Upload a PNG or JPG of the code. Blurry or low-contrast images may fail — crop tightly and try again.

Does camera scanning upload video?

No. Frames are processed in the browser and never sent to a server.

No. Generation and scanning run entirely in your browser on Mewix. Files and payloads never leave your device.

Common causes are blur, glare, low contrast, or a cropped quiet zone. Retake the photo with more light and margin around the code.

Scan QR codes from a photo or your camera. Detects URLs, WiFi, vCards, and more — decoding stays in your browser.

Scan a QR code

Drop a PNG or JPG, or use your camera. Decoding stays on this device.

Add an image or open the camera. Drop a screenshot or photo of a QR code, or start the camera on a phone or laptop.
Decode in your browser. Mewix reads the code locally and shows the raw text plus detected type.
Copy or open. Copy the result, open safe links, or view parsed WiFi and contact fields.

A QR scanner reads the square pattern and recovers the stored text — a URL, WiFi string, contact card, or plain message.
