Comments on Simple QR for Android

★★★★★ Does what it says it does, without ads! Love open-source development!
★★★★★ Simple, no ads, no privacy intrusion AND it does exactly what it says it does, smoothly and cleanly. SO much better than most that are only available to advertise at you, getting in the way of your scan need.
★★★★★ Thank you for the quality and simple QR code scanner without advertising thank you 🙂
★★☆☆☆ I was very upset that the app updated itself without asking, and enabled auto open url. The ONLY reason I wanted this app was to protect my privacy. You can turn the option off again, but it's too late now, Google has probably connected identities I didn't want connected.
★★☆☆☆ Requires credit card and McAfee virus gets ready to victimize you.
★★☆☆☆ App only shows URL. You Cann not copy or click on the URL to go to any qr scann oh no you need another app for that no this app only shows you the website you will never visit
★★☆☆☆ Decent, but doesn't seem to support rMQR codes
★★☆☆☆ DOESN'T SCAN SMALLS. FAILED ON TWO SMALL QR CODES.
