About QR SafeCode
Is that QR code safe to scan? Now you'll know before you tap. QR SafeCode is the only QR scanner that analyzes every link before you open it, detecting 49 distinct threat types in real time. Phishing, typosquatting, homoglyph attacks, malware redirects, cryptocurrency scams, USSD codes, evil twin WiFi networks, SQL injection, and more. Every QR code gets a clear verdict: SAFE, CAUTION, or DANGER, displayed as a color-coded overlay right in your camera view. THE QR-IN-QR SECRET QR SafeCode is the first and only app that can detect hidden QR codes embedded inside other QR codes. Create dual-layer codes where the outer QR works normally for everyone, but only QR SafeCode reveals the secret message hidden inside. Perfect for private messages, exclusive content, and creative marketing campaigns. SCAN ANY FORMAT Point your camera at any code and get instant results: - Standard QR codes - Micro QR codes (M1-M4) - Data Matrix, used on electronics and medical devices - Aztec Code, airline boarding passes, train tickets, Apple Wallet - PDF417, driver licenses, ID cards, shipping labels Real-time tracking overlays show you exactly which code is safe and which is dangerous, even when multiple codes are visible at once. Pinch to zoom for small codes. Built-in flashlight for dark environments. GENERATE 8 FORMATS Create professional QR codes for any purpose: - Standard QR: URL, text, email, phone, Wi-Fi, vCard - Logo QR: embed your brand image in the center - QR-in-QR: hide a secret QR inside a visible one - Micro QR: compact codes for labels and small spaces - Micro QR Strip: split long messages across multiple codes - Data Matrix, Aztec Code, PDF417: industrial and professional formats Choose between Classic and Dot visual styles. Every code uses Error Correction H for maximum reliability. SMART CONTENT PARSING QR SafeCode doesn't just scan, it understands. Scan a boarding pass and see your flight details beautifully formatted. Scan a driver license and see the parsed information.

What’s new
Version 1.1 · Updated August 18, 2026
What's new in 1.1 - QR in QR. Point the camera at a code and, if a second QR code is hidden inside it, the frame turns purple and tells you on the spot. No ordinary scanner will ever show you this. - 49 threat types detected, up from 33. New: iOS configuration profiles that can decrypt your traffic, eSIM activation codes that can take over your phone number, apps installed outside the App Store, domains mixing alphabets to imitate a trusted brand, Punycode addresses decoded to show what they really say, IP addresses disguised as ordinary numbers, and invisible or text-reversing characters. - Dangerous links are never contacted. When a code is judged dangerous the app does not reach that server at all, not even to check it, so an attacker never receives your IP address and never learns their code was scanned. - Data Matrix and Micro QR generation rebuilt and verified against Apple's own decoder. - Premium formats are detected for everyone, so you always see what a code is even before unlocking it. - Many translation fixes across all 30 languages.
