Software to read QR Codes

By: jasonp | posted on: November 13, 2009 | in: Devices

When you see a QR Code in the wild (on a postcard, marketing material, etc…), you will need two things:

- A mobile phone

- QR Code-reading software

Once the software is on your phone, then you can easily snap a picture of a QR Code, and be directed to the appropriate website or message.

Downloading a Reader

If you have a smartphone, then you certainly should be able to find a QR Code Reader that works on your phone. Here are a few:

Blackberry

iPhone

Droid

There are plenty of other QR Code Readers available. The website 2d-code.co.uk has published quite an extensive list, along with additional details.

    Hi Guys:

    Put the URL link behind the logo of the QR reader company. I can’t click on the logo to get to the site. It’ll clean up the page also. No big deal. As they say, “the devil’s in the details”. Good stuff!
