TrustScan: Safe QR Scanner

TrustScan is a QR code scanner, barcode reader and link checker that shows you where every link really goes, before you open it. Point your camera at any QR code: TrustScan reads it instantly, runs 21 safety checks on the link and tells you in plain words whether it looks safe, needs caution or is dangerous.

WHY USE A SAFE QR SCANNER?
QR code scams, also called quishing, are growing fast: fake stickers on parking meters, tampered restaurant menus, phishing codes in emails and on packages. Nobody can read a QR code by eye, and most scanners open whatever is inside without checking it. TrustScan checks the link first, so a malicious link can be caught before your browser loads it. Not sure if a link is safe? Scan it and see.

21 SAFETY CHECKS ON EVERY LINK
• Lookalike domains that imitate a real brand (paypa1, rnicrosoft, Cyrillic letters)
• Punycode tricks and brand impersonation
• Fake sign-in pages that ask for passwords, OTP codes or recovery phrases
• Links that hide their real destination behind "@", a URL shortener or a redirect
• Files that download instead of opening a page (.exe, .msi, .dmg), a common way to spread malware and viruses
• javascript: and data: links that can run code on your device
• Unencrypted HTTP, raw IP addresses and domain endings abused by scammers

Every verdict explains what was found, so you learn to recognize a phishing link yourself. Scanned a short link? One tap follows it and checks the real destination too.

SCAN ANY CODE
Read QR codes, Data Matrix, Aztec and PDF417, plus barcodes such as EAN, UPC, Code 128 and Code 39. Scan with the camera, or scan a QR code from a photo or screenshot in your library. The flashlight and zoom help in low light or with distant codes. Scan a Wi-Fi QR code to see the network name and Wi-Fi password, then copy the password in one tap. Contact cards, calendar events, email addresses, SMS and phone numbers are recognized and shown clearly. Batch mode keeps scanning without stopping.

QR CODE GENERATOR
Create QR codes for a website, text, Wi-Fi network, contact card (vCard), email, SMS, phone number or location, plus barcodes and codes for 12 platforms including WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube and PayPal. Choose your colors, then share or save in seconds.

YOUR SCAN HISTORY
Search, filter by type, star favorites and export to CSV for Excel. Prefer to keep no record? Turn history off for incognito scanning.
