Can I scan a QR code online without an app?

Most modern smartphones can scan a QR code straight from the camera app. Point your camera at the code and wait for the link to pop up. You do not need to download anything extra. If your camera does not recognise it, check your phone settings to make sure the scanner is turned on.

If you are on a computer, you can scan a QR code by uploading an image of it to a free online decoder. This is useful if you have a saved image of your code and want to check the link before printing. Just be careful with the decoder site you choose. Some free sites may store or share the links you scan, so avoid uploading codes that contain personal details or private RSVP pages.

For your own wedding, test the code on several phones and on both iOS and Android before you print. A code that works on one phone may behave differently on another. If you want full control over the destination and RSVP data, a wedding website with RSVP for every event and a guest dashboard is a reliable option.
