Comments on QR Code Scan & Barcode Scanner for Android

★★★★★ Resu Eman · Nov 8, 2024
Works GREAT! Gives me the scanned barcade data in text form.
★★★★★ cheryl putnam · Aug 21, 2022
Does just what it says it does. Good, fast reliable results. Nice app to have. I have no issues with it either.
★★★★☆ Ronald “Ron” Blackstock · May 11, 2025
You have to know where to click when the results are produced after scanning. That should not be at the bottom of the results. If you can discern the small font text at the bottom of the results, it's not a completely useless app...fix it guys...
★☆☆☆☆ rabih saad · May 8, 2024
Doesn't work, don't recognize the QR most of the time and open ads misleading for the QR link
★☆☆☆☆ fortheloveofyou John316 · Jan 31, 2023
Scam! The use of this app is not "free"... users must provide a credit card and agree to a trial period which you can cancel at time before the trial period is up, I AIN'T GOT TIME FOR THAT!... Your credit card will be charged a monthly fee. Meanwhile, back at the ranch whatever you wanted to be scanned can't be done. I uninstalled immediately... what a waste of time.
★☆☆☆☆ Stephane Brochu · Oct 28, 2024
This app is an SCAM, every time you scan a barcode, it pushes you to a link to fraud your credit card instead of the real link from the barcode you scanned....
