About this app

QUICK FREE SCANNING
Opens the camera and starts scanning straight away. Works automatically, with auto-focus. It’s a very intuitive app.

USEFUL FOR ALL PURPOSES
Open a restaurant menu on your phone. Scan a promotion on a flyer. Connect to WiFi. Add a contact. Search for where to buy a product using its barcode. Get directions for a location. And much more.

NO ACCOUNT / NO ADS / NO EXTRA PERMISSIONS
You don’t need to create an account. You won’t see any advertisements in the app. We won’t collect or sell your private data. We only ask for the camera permission.

NOTHING LOST & EXPORT CSV
The app keeps a history of all your scanned QR and Barcodes. You can come back to see and share them later.
Re-display any scanned code from your history so others can scan it directly from your screen.
Need to manage data? Export your history to a CSV file, perfect for Excel workflows, inventory management or expense tracking. [Premium Feature]

CHECK IF LINKS ARE SAFE [Premium Feature]
Before you open a link from an unknown QR code, the app checks if the link is safe using Google’s Web Risk service. It checks whether someone reported that link as malware, phishing, or unwanted software.

DARK MODE / DYNAMIC COLORS [Premium Feature]
You can use the app in dark mode. For Android 12+ users, you can switch the app colours to the colours on your phone, with the dynamic theme.
Choose your own look with handcrafted colour themes.

It will be very helpful if you add an export history option or backup the history to any cloud service or local. This will be helpful because sometime i went to an event where we are scanning QRs and we forget to open it instantly. it will help us to open later. And for export options it will be helpful when we need to change our device or when we have to reset our phone. And if we want to share our scanned url to our friends or we want to save our scanned bookmarks to any other app.

Hi Vicky, thank you for your review! Could you share a bit more about your use case for having a backup history? It would help us better understand your needs.

Excellent app. | Allows Codes to be scanned from the phone's gallery. | Double-checks the Codes and informs you of their safety. | Doesn't steal or sell data. | Doesn't plant a single Cookie, unlike others which plant upwards of a thousand Cookies which expire after a year, only to refresh each time the app is used.
