About

Never miss a QR code in a video again.

Creators flash QR codes on screen for a few seconds — then they're gone. On a laptop, there's no way to scan them with your phone without pausing, screenshotting, and switching devices. VidQR fixes that.

VidQR watches any video you're playing — YouTube, Vimeo, Twitch, Instagram, and more — and automatically detects and decodes QR codes the moment they appear. The link shows up right in your toolbar, ready to open.

Features:
• Automatic detection — no clicking, no scanning, it just works while you watch
• Works everywhere — any site with HTML5 video, not just YouTube
• History panel — every QR code you've caught, with links and timestamps, kept locally
• Jump to Timestamp — on YouTube, jump straight back to the exact moment a code appeared
• 100% private — all detection happens on your device. No servers, no uploads, no tracking.
