An Android app that belongs on your smartphone

The Android app, which is currently available free of charge, decrypts QR codes that can now be seen everywhere. If your mobile phone cannot read these codes, installing the currently free Android app is almost a must, as it provides a lot of additional information.

Free Android app: “QR / Barcode-Scanner PRO” free instead of 2.29 euros

If you look closely, you will find so-called QR codes almost everywhere. Companies often use the code to direct customers to a specific point. Be it your own app or a specific website where users can get further information.

Exactly such QR codes can only be decrypted if you have the right function on your mobile phone. If the camera app does not support this from the factory, you can help with an app such as “QR / Barcode-Scanner PRO”. This normally costs 2.29 euros and will until August 23, 2021 free of charge offered if the developer does not end the promotion early. The QR code scanner can not only open links to websites or apps, but also other things such as contacts, calendar entries, locations and the like.

That’s why the App also has the rights to access the information. This will certainly not please everyone who just wants to scan a QR code that leads to a website. However, this applies to most QR code scanners, as the range of functions has increased in recent years.

Check your mobile phone for the function in advance

But before you simply secure this free Android app that wants so many rights from you, check beforehand in the camera app or with the preinstalled apps on your mobile phone, whether this function is not already pre-installed. With high-end smartphones in particular, you no longer need an additional app, as the camera itself recognizes the content and quickly decrypts the data. If you have a cell phone without a QR code scanner, you can of course buy it here. The app has received an excellent 4.7 star rating in the Google Play Store.
