QR & Barcode Scanner

The problem is simple: QR codes and barcodes show up on menus, products, Wi-Fi labels and coupons, and the phone camera alone does not always act on them. This app aims to cut the steps. You point the camera at a code and scanning starts on its own, with no photo and no manual zoom.

It reads text, URLs, ISBNs, products, contacts, calendar entries, email, locations and Wi-Fi codes. After decoding, it shows options that fit the code type, such as acting on a contact or a link.

Beyond live scanning, the app offers several extras. You can scan a code from an image or the gallery, receive images shared from other apps, and use batch mode to read several codes at once. Results can be exported as .csv or .txt, and .csv files can be imported. Favorites and sharing are also included.

The app also generates QR codes. You type the data, or use clipboard content, and create the code. It also supports contact sharing through QR, color and theme changes, and a dark mode.

For difficult conditions, it has a flashlight for dark places and pinch to zoom for distant codes. It can also scan product barcodes in shops to compare prices, and scan coupon codes.

The scanner costs nothing and has no in-app purchases. Ads do appear, which is worth knowing for a tool you open for a few seconds at a time to read a code. The content rating is Everyone.

The version number varies by device. The most recent update came on November 3, 2026, and the app first appeared on March 12, 2015. App size and requested permissions are listed on its store page.

The publisher is Gamma Play, and the package ID is com.gamma.scan. Over 500 million installs and a 4.8 rating on Google Play are encouraging, but they do not guarantee safety. The app shows ads. Check the permissions on the store page before installing, and be careful with links decoded from codes you do not know.
