## What is QR Scanner?

QR Scanner reads QR codes in an instant with your iPhone camera, and offers the right action right away: open the link, join the Wi‑Fi, add the contact.

Aim the code in the square: it gets a green outline and the result shows up. A QR code in a screenshot, a photo or a web page? Share it to QR Scanner and it reads it without leaving the app you're in.

MANY WAYS TO SCAN
• The camera, with an aiming square to pick one code among several
• Multi scan: the camera stays open and each code shows in a banner
• A photo, a file or a copied image
• The Share menu, from Photos, Safari, Messages…
• Control Center, the Lock Screen, the Action button, Siri or the Shortcuts app

THE RIGHT ACTION, RIGHT AWAY
• Link: open or copy
• Wi‑Fi: join the network in one tap, or copy the password
• Contact (vCard, MECARD): add to Contacts
• Event: add to Calendar
• Email, phone, SMS: write, call, send a message
• Location: open in Maps
• 2FA code: copy the secret discreetly
QR Scanner also reads Aztec, PDF417 and Data Matrix codes.

SHOW A QR CODE
• Show as QR Code: in Safari, Contacts or selected text, Share › Show as QR Code turns a page, a contact or text into a QR code to show or send
• Show a code from your history full size again, or share it as an image

WATCH OUT FOR BOOBY-TRAPPED LINKS
QR Scanner checks every link on your iPhone, without sending anything, and warns you when it looks suspicious: a misleading address, letters mimicking a known name, a shortened link… It tells you why, before you open it.

RESPECTS YOUR PRIVACY
• Everything is analyzed on your iPhone: no account, no tracking.
• Scanned images are never saved.
• History stays on your iPhone, or syncs with your Mac through your private iCloud if you turn it on. It can be turned off, and 2FA secrets are never saved in it.
• Copied passwords and secrets stay on this device and are cleared from the clipboard after 2 minutes.

ALSO ON MAC
QR Scanner is also on Mac, in the menu bar: select an area of the screen to read the QR code in a video call, a PDF or a web page. Turn on iCloud sync to find your scans on both devices.

In English, French, Spanish, Italian and German.

QR Scanner is free, with no ads and no subscription. If the app helps you, you can leave an optional tip in Settings: it unlocks nothing, it simply helps keep the app going.
