QSharpener v1.0.0 Release Notes 🎉
Welcome to QSharpener v1.0.0! QSharpener is a dedicated, production-grade tool designed to recover, sharpen, and decode blurred, low-resolution, or physically damaged QR codes that standard smartphone camera scanners cannot read.
🔍 Core Restoration & Reconstruction Pipeline
- Multi-Pass Computer Vision Engine: Deterministic deblurring and adaptive binarization to extract intact data modules from defocused or motion-blurred QR photos.
- Full Grid Rendering Upon Unlock: Unlocking high-degradation QR codes reveals the genuine, uncorrupted Sharpened Grid and full module matrix.
- Interactive Pro Mode Studio: Inspect individual modules with luminance and confidence ratings, adjust 4-corner perspective handles, or manually toggle ambiguous modules.
- Clean ISO Rebuild & Vector SVG: Synthesizes mathematically clean ISO/IEC 18004 copies downloadable in crisp PNG and scalable vector SVG for 300+ DPI physical print.
🌍 Native Multilingual Support
- 4 Core Languages: Full native localization in English, German, Spanish, and Italian.
- Contextual Localization: Every UI component, error alert, interactive FAQ, legal policy, and transaction description is translated idiomatically according to natural regional usage.
- Language Switcher & SEO: Seamless locale switching with localized URLs, hreflang alternates, and Open Graph metadata.
💳 Checkout & Session Reliability
- Session State Persistence: If you need to purchase credits, your uploaded blurry image and restoration parameters are automatically preserved via browser session storage. Returning from Stripe Checkout restores your session seamlessly.
- Zero-Cost Repeat Unlocks: Re-accessing previously unlocked QR codes in your My Codes history costs 0 credits.
- Pay-as-You-Go Credits: Transparent credit packages via Stripe with direct scans 100% free.
🎨 Fast Workflow & Privacy
- Clipboard Paste Workflow: Paste blurred QR screenshots directly into the browser canvas using
Cmd+VorCtrl+Vfor instant deblurring. - Privacy by Design: Source photos are processed purely in ephemeral server memory and discarded immediately after processing.
- Streamlined Navigation: Simplified user center focusing directly on credits management and your personal restored codes vault.
