00:00how to scan a QR code on any device.
00:02In this video, I'm gonna show you a couple different ways
00:04that you can scan QR codes with any device.
00:07Doesn't matter if you have an iPhone, Android phone,
00:09Chromebook, or even a computer, anything like that.
00:12And you don't even need a camera if you don't have one.
00:14So if you have a phone, really all you need to do
00:17is open up the camera on your phone.
00:19And as you'll see here, if I capture the QR code
00:23in the camera, it'll bring up the link
00:25and I can just select that and it'll open up the QR code.
00:28Same thing with an Android phone here.
00:29It'll bring it up right there.
00:32And then I can select it.
00:33So really easy on any device, really with a camera,
00:36all you need to do is aim the camera at the QR code
00:39and it should scan it.
00:41Now, if for some reason that doesn't work for you
00:42or you're on a different device,
00:43we can use a website that I actually created
00:46called qrcodegadget.com.
00:48And I made this website because I wanted to be able
00:49to recommend a tool that doesn't upload any
00:52of the scanned images to a server, anything like that.
00:55All the scanning and decoding happens within the browser
00:58on your device using JavaScript.
00:59And check the description of a link down there.
01:01Once you get to qrcodegadget.com,
01:03select QR code scanner, give it access to your camera.
01:07And then all you need to do is get the QR code in there
01:10and it'll automatically scan it for you.
01:12And you could see the decoded results.
01:15Now, if you don't have a camera,
01:16you can also use QR code gadget to scan QR codes
01:19by taking a picture of the QR code.
01:22Or if the QR code is on your phone,
01:25take a screenshot of it.
01:26So I'm gonna take a picture of it.
01:27Then just open the QR code decoder
01:29and find that image on your phone.
01:32Give it access to the image, choose that image,
01:34and then it will automatically decode it for you
01:36and give you the QR code contents
01:39without having to actually scan it with your phone.
01:42It just scans the picture.
01:43So those were three different ways to scan QR codes
01:45on any device.
