About this app

One in three Indians using UPI has been scammed or knows someone who has. A fake QR stuck over a real one. A payment to a stranger. Money that never came back. BinRo was built because this should not still be happening.

BinRo is a QR code scanner, security analyser, and QR code generator for Android. Every scan gets an instant Trust Score from 0 to 100. Safe, suspicious, or confirmed scam — you know before you pay.

WHAT MAKES BINRO DIFFERENT
――――――――――――――――――――――――

Every QR scanner reads QR codes. BinRo tells you whether to trust what you read.

Three checks run the moment you scan: a heuristic engine analysing URL structure, domain reputation, SSL status, brand impersonation, and shortener masking; a real-time Google Safe Browsing lookup against Google's global phishing and malware database; and community intelligence from every user who scanned that same QR before you. One Trust Score. Green is safe. Yellow means look carefully. Red means stop.

――――――――――――――――――――――――
FOR UPI PAYMENTS SPECIFICALLY
――――――――――――――――――――――――

BinRo has a dedicated UPI QR parser. Scan any payment QR — at a shop, on a bill, from WhatsApp — and the app reads the UPI ID, merchant name, and payee details instantly. A fake QR stuck over a genuine one shows a different UPI ID than the sign above it claims. BinRo catches that before you tap Pay.

Compatible with Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm, BHIM, and all UPI QR codes.

COMMUNITY TRUST RATINGS
――――――――――――――――――――――――

Every QR on the network carries real user ratings. If others reported it as a scam, you see that warning before you decide anything. You can also report — mark any QR as Safe, Scam, Fake, or Spam. Your report is weighted and contributes to the Trust Score immediately. Community comments let users warn others with details no algorithm catches.

――――――――――――――――――――――――
SCAN HISTORY
――――――――――――――――――――――――

Every scan is logged, grouped by date, and searchable. Review any past scan, share it as a warning, or report it. Cloud sync across devices when signed in. Works offline without an account.

――――――――――――――――――――――――
QR CODE GENERATOR
――――――――――――――――――――――――

Create QR codes for:
• Website and social media profiles
• UPI payments with amount and payee name
• Wi-Fi — guests connect without seeing your password
• Contact cards (vCard), WhatsApp, Email, SMS, phone calls
• Calendar events, location, plain text, crypto wallets

Business QR codes include Living Shield — a dynamic QR you can update after printing. The physical QR never changes. The destination can. Track scan counts, analytics, and follower data in real time.

――――――――――――――――――――――――
PRIVACY AND ANONYMOUS MODE
――――――――――――――――――――――――

No account needed. Anonymous scanning works from the moment you install. Nothing is stored on any server unless you choose to save it. Full history, community features, and the generator unlock in under thirty seconds with Google sign-in.

――――――――――――――――――――――――
CRYPTOGRAPHIC VERIFICATION
――――――――――――――――――――――――

Verified QR codes carry an ECDSA P-256 cryptographic signature. BinRo verifies it instantly. If a QR has been tampered with or the destination changed, verification fails and you are warned immediately.
