aQRnym

Shows where a QR code leads, right on the page. Everything is read on your own computer.

aQRnym shows where a QR code leads before you scan it with your phone or open anything. A small badge appears on the QR codes in the pages you visit. Hover over it to see what the code contains. Links are shown in full, with the real website in bold, so you can tell where you would end up. Open or copy it with one click. WHAT IT READS • Links, shown with the actual website highlighted • Wi-Fi codes: see the network name and copy the password • Email addresses, phone numbers, contacts and plain text • Two-factor setup codes: recognised and kept hidden, so you only copy them into your authenticator app WHERE IT FINDS CODES • Pictures, drawings and backgrounds on any web page, automatically • Any picture without a badge: right-click it and choose "aQRnym › Read QR code" • Videos, banners and anything else on screen: right-click and choose "aQRnym › Scan this page for QR codes" • Hard-to-reach spots: "Select area" lets you draw a box around a code • PDFs: click "Check this PDF" to find codes on the first 10 pages, with page numbers. For codes further in, use "Select area". PDFs are only read when you ask. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Everything is read on your computer • No server, no account, no history, no tracking, no ads • Turn the badges off everywhere, or only on the sites you choose Available in English, Chinese, French, German, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Turkish. aQRnym is free.

Look at the website address it shows and decide for yourself before opening a link. aQRnym is provided "as is", without warranty. Terms of use: https://authentic-core-technologies.github.io/aqrnym-privacy/terms ABOUT THE PERMISSIONS Chrome will say that aQRnym can "read and change all your data on all websites". This is needed because QR codes can appear on any website: the extension has to look at the pictures on the page to find them, and to draw its small badges on top. What it finds stays on your computer. The privacy policy explains exactly what the extension reads and the two things that leave your computer.
