Scan barcodes, count products and export an Excel or CSV list. Create custom QR codes for links, Wi-Fi and contacts β€” no account required. Keep separate counting sessions, add product names and locations, correct quantities and compare your count with an expected CSV list. Core scanning, counting and static QR creation work offline. Read codes with the camera, a selected image or a PDF, and preview decoded content before opening a link. Create QR codes for links, text, Wi-Fi and contact details. Choose square or rounded styling and share PNG or SVG files. Design photo QR cards, business cards, invitations, thank-you cards and social media stands. Reuse saved designs, logos and palettes, and prepare PDF or A4 print layouts. Available export formats depend on the tool. Your local scans and saved work stay on your device unless you choose to share or publish them. Use local backup files to move supported libraries. Menu and service editing and PDF creation work locally. Online availability is shown in the app and requires internet, authorization and service capacity. New event publishing and AI generation are not offered in this release. Existing publications and rights remain accessible. Menu/event ownership keys are device-bound and are not included in app backups. Usage measurement is optional and starts off on new installations. The app interface supports 12 languages, including English and Turkish. Optional Pro Design is a one-time purchase with no subscription or automatic renewal. It unlocks new A5/A4 adaptations in supported designs, new complete saved styles and permanent ad-free use. Existing saved designs and styles remain available to edit, reuse and export. Online PDF hosting and custom-domain packages are separate and are not included. Optional iCloud sync starts off. If you enable it, supported scan history, including code contents, and saved card/invitation data, designs and logos are sent to your private Apple iCloud database. Other libraries, owner keys and purchases are excluded. Turning sync off does not delete existing cloud data.
