A Free QR Code Scanner & Creator App for iPhone
Most QR scanner apps on the App Store do the same frustrating thing: they take a tool that should be free and wall it off behind ads, sign-up screens, or a “pro” subscription. Want to scan from a photo? Pay up. Want to save your history? Make an account. Want to remove the banner ad covering the camera? Subscribe.
We thought that was silly, so we built the opposite.
Introducing the free QR Code Scanner & Creator for iPhone — a genuinely free QR toolkit with no account, no ads, no subscriptions, and no scan limits. Your scans are processed on device and stay private.
Coming soon: The app is on its way to the App Store. Want a heads-up the day it launches? Email [email protected] and we’ll let you know.
Scan anything

- Live camera scanning for QR codes and common barcodes
- Continuous multi-code scanning, flash, and pinch zoom
- Scan a code straight from a screenshot or saved photo
- A safe-link confirmation step so you always see where a code points before it opens
Create every common QR code

The built-in creator covers the QR types people actually use:
- Website links
- Wi-Fi networks
- Contacts and vCards
- Email, SMS, and phone
- Calendar events
- Locations
- Social profile links
Customize the colors and share clean, unwatermarked images.
Organize and export without limits

Every scan and creation is saved to a private, searchable history on your device. Add notes, mark favorites, group codes into folders, and export to CSV whenever you need a record. You can also regenerate a QR code from any past entry.
Private by design
- No sign-up and no email required
- No ads, subscriptions, or upsells
- Camera and photo scanning are processed on device
- No collected data and no tracking
- Your history stays in the app’s private storage unless you choose to share it
