Frequently asked
Questions, answered
What types of codes can ScanQR read?
ScanQR scans standard QR codes, product barcodes (UPC/EAN), ticket codes, and promotional codes. If it has a barcode or QR pattern, the app can read it using your iPhone's camera.
Does the app work in low-light conditions?
Yes. ScanQR includes a built-in flash toggle visible right on the scanner screen. Tap the flash icon and the app uses your iPhone's torch to illuminate dark environments, keeping scan accuracy high even at night or in dim stores.
Can I create my own QR codes inside the app?
Absolutely. The Generate tab lets you pick from a list of platforms — including WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok, Spotify, Telegram, and more — enter your username or link, and produce a finished QR code you can save or share immediately.
How does the scan history work?
Every scan you perform is saved automatically and sorted by date and time. You can scroll back through past scans, search by keyword to find a specific result, and export the entire history as a CSV file for backup or analysis.
Can I export my scan data?
Yes. ScanQR lets you export your full scan history as a CSV file, which you can open in Excel, Google Sheets, or any spreadsheet tool. It's useful for expense tracking, inventory checks, or sharing records with a team.
Does the app store my personal data from scans?
No. ScanQR does not store personal or sensitive information from the content of your scans. Scan results are saved locally on your device only, and the app does not transmit your data to external servers.
Does ScanQR give feedback when a scan succeeds?
Yes. The app provides both a visual cue and an audio beep the moment a code is successfully read, so you know the scan registered without having to stare at the screen. Scan sounds can be customized in Settings.
Is ScanQR free to download?
ScanQR is available as a free download on the Apple App Store. Open the App Store, search for ScanQR, and tap Get. Core scanning and QR code generation features are accessible after install.
