QR Linker: Opens QR Code Links
The QR Linker extension is a handy tool for quickly accessing websites using QR codes. Developed by Jason Deschard, this free Chrome add-on falls under the category of Browsers and specifically the subcategory of Add-ons & Tools.
To use QR Linker, simply click on the extension's button in the toolbar. This action will open a new tab that displays the camera. Hold a QR code in front of the camera, ensuring it is clearly visible. If the QR code contains a URL, the tab will navigate to that website.
One of the standout features of QR Linker is its focus on privacy. The extension requires no special permissions other than accessing the camera. It utilizes the LazarSoft QR code javascript library, allowing it to process QR codes directly within the browser without sending any data to external servers.
With its straightforward functionality and emphasis on privacy, QR Linker is a useful tool for conveniently accessing websites through QR codes.
