QR Code Scanner & Scanner App

Reading QR codes, barcodes and batches

The listing says the scanner decodes many code types, including ones that carry Wi-Fi network details, contact cards, web addresses, plain text, email addresses, locations and calendar events. Product barcodes and book codes are also listed among the supported types.

Batch scanning lets you read more than one code in a row instead of opening the app again for each one.

Checking products and prices in stores

The app can act as a price scanner. You point it at a product barcode in a shop, and it looks up the product, shows its details and lets you compare prices online.

The listing also suggests scanning promo and coupon codes to find discounts. The listing does not say which sellers or databases the product lookup draws on.

Creating your own QR codes

The app includes a QR code generator. It creates codes for web addresses, Wi-Fi network details, phone numbers, contacts and plain text, so a code can be made for a guest network or a contact card and then scanned by someone else.
