## What is QRCode Barcode?

Scan QR Codes and barcodes in seconds.
Scan codes from photos, use continuous scanning, search your history, export it as CSV, and create QR Codes—all in one app.

Show the QR Codes you create on Apple Watch too, so membership cards and check-in codes are ready without taking out your iPhone.
