TrustScan: Safe QR Scanner

TrustScan reads QR codes instantly and checks where every link actually goes before you open it.

SAFETY BUILT IN, NOT BOLTED ON

Scanned a code on a parking meter, a menu, or a leaflet? TrustScan runs 14 checks on the link first and warns you in plain language if something looks wrong:

• Lookalike domains using Cyrillic or Greek letters to imitate a real brand

• Punycode tricks and brand impersonation

• Links that hide their real destination behind "@" or a shortener

• Files that download instead of opening a page (.apk, .exe, .msi)

• javascript: and data: links that can run code on your phone

• Sign-in and recovery-phrase pages — never enter those from a scanned code

• Unencrypted HTTP, raw IP addresses, abused domain endings

Every check runs on your device. No scanned link is ever sent to us or anyone else.

GENUINELY PRIVATE

• No account, no sign-up, no email

• We run no servers, so we receive nothing

• No tracking or crash-reporting SDKs

• Camera frames are analysed in memory and discarded — nothing is recorded or uploaded

• Scan history stays in a local database you control, or turn it off entirely for incognito scanning
