QR Code Halo: Scan & Create

QR Code Halo acts the moment it reads a code. Scan with the camera or choose a photo, and links open in your browser, passkey sign-in codes and app links go straight to iOS, Wi-Fi codes bring up the iOS Join prompt, and calls, messages, email and places open in their own apps. Contacts and events open the iOS add screen for you to confirm. Text is copied with a short note, and javascript:, data: or file: codes are never opened. To check each code first, turn off “Run action after scanning” in Settings; batch scan only collects. Security Check in History Every scan outside batch mode is saved on this device unless “Skip saving to history” is on. Open any code in History and tap Security Check to review it with two local tools. Local Payload Security Inspector Parses the complete payload on device into scheme, host, path, query and fragment. Deterministic rules return Safe, Caution or Blocked, transparent findings and an action disposition. No network reputation lookup and no fuzzy score are used; parsing uncertainty fails closed instead of enabling an action. QR Verification Save a result as a local reference, then compare a later scan by its complete SHA-256 fingerprint, QR format, content type, URL components, security level and action disposition. Batch Risk & Difference Audit Finds exact duplicate groups and host groups across a batch, then checks bounded lookalike hosts rather than claiming unlimited similarity detection. It shows the overall risk, each item's risk and every full decoded payload together. Reading the complete audit is available without an unlock.
