## What is TrueQR?

TrueQR is the QR scanner that remembers and tells the truth.

Your phone's camera scans a code, opens the link, and forgets it ever happened. TrueQR keeps a private, searchable log of every scan — and tells you what's really inside a code before you open it.

EVERY SCAN, REMEMBERED
• Unlimited history of everything you scan — free
• Search, filter, favorite, and add notes
• Scan live with the camera, or from any saved image or screenshot
• Reads QR codes and retail barcodes: EAN, UPC, Code 128, Code 39, ITF-14, Data Matrix, Aztec, PDF417 — copy a product number in one tap

SAFETY BEFORE YOU TAP
QR phishing ("quishing") is everywhere — fake parking-meter stickers, menus, posters. TrueQR checks every code offline, instantly:
• Flags look-alike and disguised domains
• Warns on URL shorteners that hide the real destination
• Warns on insecure links and raw IP addresses
Nothing is ever blocked — you stay in control, informed.

PAYMENT QR X-RAY
Point TrueQR at a payment code (PayNow, SGQR, LankaQR, UPI, PromptPay) and see who you're actually paying — merchant, amount, and an integrity check — before you open your banking app.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No ads. No accounts. No analytics. No tracking.
• Scanning and analysis run entirely on your phone — even in airplane mode
• Your scans never leave your device

ALSO INCLUDED
• QR generator for links, text, Wi-Fi, and contacts — free forever
• Instant-open mode: safe scans open immediately; suspicious ones always stop for review

TRUEQR PRO — ONE-TIME PURCHASE, NO SUBSCRIPTION
• CSV / JSON export of your history
• Full payment field tree (every EMVCo tag, decoded)
Scanning, analysis, safety checks, and unlimited history are free forever.

Generate just grew up.

- Share, save and copy: send any QR you make to Messages, Mail or AirDrop, save it to Photos, or copy it - all in crisp high resolution.
- Branded QR codes (Pro): put your logo in the middle and pick from six color styles. TrueQR automatically raises error correction so styled codes stay scannable.
- My Codes: keep the codes you use again and again. Reopen them fully editable, restyle and re-share any time.
- Share TO TrueQR: highlight a link or text in any app, tap Share, choose TrueQR, and your QR code is ready.
