User Reviews

Overall, the add-on is functional for decoding QR codes with quick mobile sharing and easy toolbar/right-click access. However, reviews show mixed recognition performance, clipboard issues, and at least one malware warn; security concerns exist. It helps desktop users but reliability can vary.

Pros

Functional QR code reading/decoding (works as intended).
Fast transfer/sharing of pages to mobile.
Easy access from the toolbar and via right-click context menu (decode/generate).
Desktop QR scanning support (works on PC).

Cons

Recognition performance is inconsistent and sometimes lower than competing add-ons.
Copy to Clipboard feature sometimes does not work.
Decoded results are shown as notifications rather than allowing direct open/copy.
Security concern: at least one review reports a malware/virus warning.

Recent reviews

Works well. Edit the add on options in firefox to set it to copy decoded QR code text to clipboard or open it in browser if it is a url.

Is QR Code Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

QR Code requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

QR Code is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
