### 5/5 — So far awesome

*2023-02-09*

So far awesome and exactly what I was looking for. I work at Trader Joe’s and sometimes customers ask me about the continents, nutrients, etc…… just being able to scan and search is cool and what I was looking for without paying a frucking monthly fee that seems to be the norm with these scum sucking in-app purchase clown developers

### 3/5 — Works great except…

*2022-09-14, version 6.2*

I don’t see where you can chose it to scan a QR code in a pic on my iPhone.  Simply enough, I have a Pic of a QR code that’s saved to my phone. If your app(s) can’t scan a photo for the QR code, that’s a big hole in the functionality. If it can, it’s not obvious how. For this use, it’s lacking

### 5/5 — Bhitch I Mii (Mac 🔬🔬🔬🔬🔬🔬🔬🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

*2021-11-13*

Let’s Go

### 3/5 — Crash when tapping on created QR code

*2021-01-03, version 6.2*

I created a QR code in the app. When I tap on the created QR code icon in the list, the app crashes.

### 1/5 — Worst we generator

*2020-07-29*

When ever creating barcodes with transparency option it keeping closing app ,
 I bought the premium for transparency option but unfortunately I lost fees which I be paid for such application

### 2/5 — Вылетает!

*2018-12-13*

При создании текста в QR-коде вылетает, не сохраняет ничего... подложить фото, сделать прозрачным невозможно! Зря приобретал... две звезды это авансом!

### 1/5 — The options in create mode don’t work

*2018-12-02, version 6.2*

I make the purchase because the ‘create’ option.  It’s not matured.  It doesn’t allow me to use all the shapes and color on the shape options.  It just gives a message of invalid choice.  If it’s invalid, please don’t make the options available for us to pick.  The message didn’t say which option is invalid.  Very frustrated. It ends up, I could only pick a color for the code.  No background color, no change shape are allowed — invalid option...  I think I was fooled by the picture on the App Store.  It shows all the options for creating code, but only one option is working.

### 1/5 — Paid money for this and doesn’t work

*2018-11-12*

Seems like a scam, don’t waste your money

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2018-10-07*

Works perfectly, no bugs. This app is extremely helpful, get it.

### 3/5 — Accessibility issues – labeling

*2018-07-26*

This is a very useful app however, there are some issues with accessibility and voiceover. When taking a finger and moving down to the tab area the five tabs are not properly labeled all they say is tab 1 of 5, tab 2 of 5, tab 3 of five, tab for of five and tab five of five. You have to spend an excessive amount of time searching through the screen to find where you want to be an activate the feature. This app would get five stars if the buttons were properly labeled
