About
Have ever wondered what information is stored in a QR code, or a Barcode, or many other types of codes, but didn’t want to have your phone just open a webpage, or launch an app without your permission? Us too! This is a code scanning app for privacy minded people. There are no ads, no trackers, no third party libraries, and no asking for any information to make the app work. You don’t have to worry about your phone opening things on its own, all the data in the code is presented to you as text. Giving control of your device back to you. You will have the option to copy it, so that you can visit a page when you want to, or paste it into a note to look at it later. This does require access to your camera to scan the codes. We cannot and will not ever access your camera remotely.
Currently the app can read the following types of codes:

Code 39
Code 39 Mod 43
