Swiftkit Scanner

Scan QR codes and barcodes instantly — via camera or USB scanner. Fast, free, and 100% private. No account needed.

**Swiftkit Scanner** brings QR code and barcode scanning directly into your browser — no sign-up, no cloud processing, no data collection. Everything runs entirely on your device. Whether you're scanning product barcodes, QR codes from documents, or processing inventory with a physical USB scanner, Swiftkit Scanner handles it instantly and privately. ───────────────────────────── ✦ CAMERA SCANNING ───────────────────────────── Point your webcam at any QR code or barcode and get an instant result. Powered by Chrome's native BarcodeDetector API — fast, accurate, and completely on-device. Supported formats: • QR Code • Data Matrix • Aztec • PDF-417 • EAN-13 / EAN-8 • UPC-A / UPC-E • Code 128 / Code 39 / Code 93 • Codabar • ITF Filter by format group (QR, Barcode, Code, Data Matrix) or scan all formats at once. ───────────────────────────── ✦ USB BARCODE SCANNER SUPPORT ───────────────────────────── Works with any USB barcode scanner in keyboard-wedge mode — which covers the vast majority of commercial scanners on the market (Zebra, Honeywell, Datalogic, Symbol, and others). Plug in your scanner, click the capture field, and scan. The extension automatically distinguishes scanner input (fast, ~1ms per character) from manual typing and captures only genuine scans. No drivers, no special permissions, no setup required. Configurable settings: • Minimum character length threshold • Input timeout window • Optional Enter-key confirmation mode ───────────────────────────── ✦ FLEXIBLE DISPLAY MODES ───────────────────────────── Choose how the scanner opens on every use: • Open Inline — expands the scanner inside the browser toolbar popup. No new windows, no context switching. A pop-out button lets you undock it mid-session. • New Window — opens as a clean, detached, resizable popup window you can position anywhere on your screen. Ideal for workflows where you need the scanner visible alongside other apps. The extension remembers if a scanner window is already open and lets you refocus it with one click instead of opening a duplicate. ───────────────────────────── ✦ RESULT HANDLING ───────────────────────────── • Scan result is displayed immediately with format label and input source (Camera or USB) • URLs detected in QR codes are highlighted and clickable — opens in a new tab instantly • One-click copy to clipboard • Audible beep and haptic feedback (on supported devices) on every successful scan ───────────────────────────── ✦ SCAN HISTORY ───────────────────────────── The last 50 scans are saved locally in your browser. Each entry shows the decoded value, format type, input source, and timestamp. Click any entry to copy it to your clipboard. History persists across sessions and is never sent anywhere. ───────────────────────────── ✦ TORCH / FLASHLIGHT ───────────────────────────── Toggle your device's built-in torch directly from the camera view for scanning in low-light conditions. Available on supported devices and cameras. ───────────────────────────── ✦ 100% PRIVATE — NO DATA LEAVES YOUR DEVICE ───────────────────────────── Swiftkit Scanner has no backend, no analytics, no telemetry, and no accounts. All scanning, detection, and history storage happens locally in your browser. Nothing is ever transmitted to any server, by anyone, for any reason. ───────────────────────────── ✦ PERMISSIONS EXPLAINED ───────────────────────────── • Storage — saves your scan history and settings locally in your browser. No external storage. That's it. No broad host permissions. No access to your browsing history. No microphone. No location. ───────────────────────────── ✦ WHO IS THIS FOR? ───────────────────────────── • E-commerce and retail staff processing product barcodes • Warehouse and logistics workers using USB scanners • Developers testing QR code generation • Anyone who needs to quickly decode a QR code from their screen or a physical label • Researchers and data entry professionals processing barcoded documents ───────────────────────────── ✦ SUPPORT THE PROJECT ───────────────────────────── ───────────────────────────── ♥ SUPPORT THE PROJECT ───────────────────────────── Swiftkit Scanner is free and will always remain free.
