- Clean, simple design that gets out of your way

- Built-in QR code generator

- Scan safely - see the full redirect path and where a link really ends up

SCAN ANY QR CODE

Our QR code scanner reads every common QR code type and shows you exactly what is inside before you act on it:

- Website links (URL)

- WiFi networks - connect with one tap, no typing the password

- Contacts - save straight to your phonebook

- Email addresses and pre-filled messages

- Phone numbers - call or save in one tap

- Locations and map coordinates

- Plain text, and more

SEE WHERE A LINK REALLY GOES - BEFORE YOU OPEN IT

QR codes hide their destination, and scammers exploit that with short links and sneaky redirects. QR Scanner shows you what is inside a code first, then follows a scanned link through every redirect - hop by hop - and reveals the real final destination, so you know exactly where a QR code will take you before you tap. Most QR scanners just open the link and hope for the best.
