About

QR Code Reader

Features
Read full description

The only QR app that verifies a code before you trust it. Most scanners open whatever they read. Most generators hand you a pretty code and hope it scans. This one does the opposite: it inspects every link before it opens, checks every payment code before your money moves, and stress-tests every design before you print it. What makes it different - Link X-Ray. Before any link opens, it's expanded to its true destination and rated Safe, Caution, or Do Not Open — with plain-language reasons. Hidden short links, look-alike addresses, and unencrypted pages are caught on your device. - Payment Shield. Scan a payment code and see exactly who's behind it — name, ID, and amount — before you pay. Editable-amount and mismatched-name codes are flagged clearly. - Scan Guarantee Lab. Style a code as far as you like, then let the built-in Lab score it for real-world scannability. It simulates blur, glare, low light, distance, and mono printing, tells you what to fix, and gives you a print-size guide. - Brand Kit + Share-to-Code. Save your colors, logo, and style once. Turn any link from any app into your signature code in two taps. - Voice-Guided Scan. A fully spoken, high-contrast scanning mode built for blind and low-vision users, with audio alignment and spoken results. Everything you'd expect, done well - Scan and generate QR codes and barcodes (UPC, EAN, Code 128, and more) - A deep design studio: gradients, custom dots and eyes, logos, frames, error-correction control - Smart results: Wi-Fi codes join, contacts save, events add to your calendar in one tap - A searchable vault of everything you've scanned and created, with CSV export - Multi-scan, gallery scanning, and flash controls Private by design. Codes are read and checked on your device. Nothing you scan is uploaded. There are no accounts to create. Design it. Verify it. Scan it safe. Disclaimer: All safety, payment, and scan checks run entirely on your device using pattern-based analysis. They may miss harmful links or flag safe ones, and cannot verify a payment recipient's identity or legitimacy — the app never processes payments. Treat every result as guidance, not a guarantee: review a link's destination, confirm details with the merchant before paying, and test a printed sample before bulk printing. You use these features at your own discretion and risk. For an uninterrupted experience, consider subscribing to access all app features without ads through an auto-renewing subscription available on a weekly, monthly, or yearly basis. Manage your subscription settings and turn off auto-renewal within your iTunes Account Settings after purchase, ensuring flexibility and control over your subscription. Current subscription may not be canceled during the active subscription period; however, you can manage your subscription and/or turn off auto-renewal by visiting your iTunes Account Settings after purchase.
