qrpwd - Encode to QR-Code

Online tool: Encode - Decode

qrpwd is a command-line tool that allows you to encode and decode textual information with strong encryption using a given password in a QR code. The tool is designed to be secure and convenient, making it ideal for storing sensitive information such as 2-factor authentication (2FA) backup codes.

Test QR Code

To decode the QR code online, you can use the following link: https://qrpwd.franzai.com/. Simply upload the test.png file and enter the password "test" to decode the message.

Usage

Encode
