### 1/5 — Scam

Codes didn’t work, waste of time and money

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-11-01*

Don’t waste your money, it doesn’t work….

### 1/5 — Very limited, and deceives you of its price

*2024-08-14*

This is a mediocre app with absolutely zero customization when it comes to the QR code specification. It does not allow you to change the amount of error correction, does not allow you to change to different input mode encoding (numeral, alphabetic, binary, kanji), and are unable to change the byte/character size of a given QR code. For scanning QR codes, it works fine, but Apple has already implemented a native solution with-in the camera app. Overall, this app is very useless if you want to do anything more than what the company has decided the consumer would want, which is very little. 

WARNING: a huge trend in cheaply made "free" apps  is to only allows users to try it one time, before locking its features behind a pay wall of two dollars. This app psychologically manipulates you to be more susceptible to buying irrationally, by softening you up by enticing you with a free app before making you pay for it. Whoever at this company decided to lie to its consumers is questionable at best, and malicious at worst. Please be more honest and just list the app on the App Store as two dollars, even if Apple takes a cut of that money. Companies like these make people complacent to downloading free crappy crap instead of paying for good programs, therefore ruining the FOSS community, and any individual developer or small dev team who does not play quick and dirty with their competition. Devs need money to be able to develop a single great application, and this company are anti-competitive by flood the market with a hundred bad apps.

Making a big application like Nextcloud, Gimp, Audacity, Obsidian. or any other liberated FOSS software is expensive to make, and we need normalize paying for good software, that is what GPL is for. We need to normalize paying for mobile games and applications, because the alternative is paying via ads, letting ad companies steal your personal information, and games having lots of excessive micro-transactions.

### 1/5 — QR code did not work

*2024-07-23*

Only worked for a while

### 1/5 — Not free

*2023-08-22*

Literally only works once then they prompt you to pay $2

### 1/5 — Waste

*2022-06-11*

I used this and printed it onto 100 business cards to link a petition and my website. The codes didn’t work! Wasted $30!

### 1/5 — Couldn’t even check it worked

*2022-03-30*

Wanted to see if I could generate a code to link to Instagram.

One (failed) attempt and it immediately wants payment.

No idea if it can do what I want it to do and I’m not going to pay £1.80 to find out.

### 3/5 — Easy improvement?

*2022-02-13*

Nice app. I bought it primarily to share wifi password.
Now, instead ( or in addition) to have the option to create phone number, email, website, etc, all in separate QR.  what about one option to load personal contact information that would include name, phone, email, website In one single QR....would that be possible?

### 5/5 — Unsure

*2024-05-10*

Not yet too familiar in how to use!

### 5/5 — Nice app…only once

*2022-09-23*

Thus far the app will only allow 1 QR to be created. Even if your just testing, so don’t waste it like I did. Just be mindful, as I wasn’t aware of this. Oh well.
