A QR code never shows where it leads. That is exactly what QR code scams ("quishing") exploit: fake parking meters, fake fines, tampered menus and fraudulent payment links. BlokQR checks the destination BEFORE you open it - and never opens the link on your phone.
HOW IT WORKS
- You scan a QR code or a barcode, or paste a link you received in a message.
- BlokQR follows the real destination (redirects included) on its secure server, without opening anything on your device.
- You get a clear, signed verdict - safe, caution or dangerous - with the reasons and the threat category (login phishing, brand impersonation, deceptive redirect and more).
WHAT BLOKQR DETECTS
- Phishing and impersonation pages (fake logins, password forms).
- Deceptive domains (typosquatting, homoglyphs, abusive subdomains).
- Suspicious redirects, URL shorteners, unusual ports.
- Dangerous reputation via threat intelligence.
- Wi-Fi networks, SMS actions and crypto payment codes hidden inside QR codes.
CHECK LINKS YOU RECEIVE
- Share any link to BlokQR from your messaging app, email or browser to have it analyzed.
- A home screen widget and a quick settings tile let you scan or check a link in a single tap.
CREATE YOUR OWN CODES
- QR code and barcode generator: link, text, Wi-Fi, contact, event, email, SMS, phone, location.
- Save, share or print your codes. Everything is generated offline, on the device.
YOUR HISTORY, MADE USEFUL
- Find your scans, search them and filter by category (safe, suspicious, dangerous, products).
- Re-run an analysis with a single tap, delete one entry or clear everything.
- Share a verdict as an image card to warn friends and family.
SMART ACTIONS
- A contact, event, Wi-Fi or phone code? BlokQR offers the right action, always confirmed by you.
- Product barcodes (EAN/UPC) are recognized, with no quota and no network use.
WORKS OFFLINE TOO
No connection? BlokQR runs a local analysis of the code, directly on the device, to flag obvious risks - you are never left without a verdict.
PRIVACY AND SECURITY BY DESIGN
- No account, no ads, no third-party trackers.
- The camera feed and images stay on your device - never transmitted.
- Your scan history is stored encrypted on your device (AES-256-GCM, hardware-backed key) and can be erased at any time.
- Optional biometric lock for the history and for the whole app, plus a "secure screen" that hides content in the app switcher and blocks screenshots.
- The scanned URL is not retained by the service.
- Post-quantum grade protection (FIPS 203/204) for exchanges with the service and for verdict signatures.
