About this app

ScanLens helps you check suspicious links, scam URLs, QR codes, SMS, email and chat messages before you open them.

Use ScanLens when you receive a delivery text, bank alert, tax refund message, subscription warning, fake login page or unknown link and want a clear safety report before you tap.

Check phishing links and scam URLs

ScanLens can help you:

- Check suspicious URLs
- Review phishing and scam website signals
- Scan QR codes and barcodes
- Extract links from images and screenshots
- Review redirects and final destinations
- Get a clear SAFE, SUSPICIOUS or DANGEROUS verdict

Scan suspicious messages

For better results, paste the full SMS, email or chat message, not only the link. Message wording and context can help ScanLens identify warning signs such as:

- Fake parcel delivery fees
- Bank security alerts
- Tax refund scams
- Subscription payment scams
- Account verification scams
- Suspicious links hidden inside messages
- Urgent wording and pressure tactics

QR code and screenshot checks

Scammers often hide risky links inside QR codes, screenshots and short URLs. ScanLens can scan QR codes or extract links from images so you can review the destination before opening it.

Scam Guard Lite

Optional Scam Guard Lite can help review link notifications from SMS and chat apps. When a link pattern appears in a notification, ScanLens can save it to Guard Inbox so you can review it before opening the link.

You stay in control. ScanLens does not send messages automatically without your action.

Clear safety reports

Each scan can include:

- Verdict: SAFE, SUSPICIOUS or DANGEROUS
- Risk level
- Main warning signs
- Human-friendly explanation
- Suggested next steps
- Technical details for advanced users

Start without an account

Useful for everyday protection

ScanLens is useful for checking:

- Suspicious SMS links
- Fake delivery messages
- Banking and payment scam links
- Government or tax refund messages
- QR code scams
- Email phishing links
- Chat messages with risky links
- Unknown URLs before you tap

Privacy-conscious scanning

Automated analysis is used to generate safety reports. Some technical data may be processed to provide scanning, app integrity, analytics, crash reporting, ads, rewards or premium features.

Important

ScanLens provides best-effort automated security analysis. No scanner can guarantee that every link or message is safe or dangerous. Be careful with unknown links, payment pages, login forms and urgent messages asking for personal or financial information.
