Code Reader - QR Scanner

A feature-rich QR and barcode scanner: scan, generate, and share codes — fast and privately.

Scan codes with text, links, contacts, emails, locations, Wi‑Fi networks, product barcodes, and more.

When you scan a code, the app acts on it intelligently: links open in the browser, email addresses let you compose a message quickly, and vCards can be viewed or added to Contacts.

You can read codes with the camera or generate them in the app — plus use action extensions to scan or create codes from other apps.¹

Spotted a QR code in a photo or on a website? Use the Read Code extension to scan it instantly.¹
