Frequently asked questions
The camera doesn't open
Open iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Camera and make sure QR & Barcode Smart Scan is turned on. If it isn't listed, delete and reinstall the app so iOS re-prompts for permission.
A code isn't scanning
Try improving lighting, holding the phone still, and moving closer or further so the code fills the viewfinder. Pinch to zoom for small codes. Glare or a damaged code can also block scanning — try scanning from a photo instead.
What is the free version vs. Pro?
The free version lets you scan and generate QR codes with a lifetime cap on scan history (20 items) and QR generation (5 codes). Pro removes both caps. All scanning features, URL safety checks, food nutrition lookup, camera/torch/zoom, and CSV export work on both tiers.
How much does Pro cost?
Pro Monthly is $1.99 / month. Pro Yearly is $11.99 / year (about 50% off the monthly rate). Both come with a 7-day free trial for new subscribers. Prices may vary by region — the App Store shows your local price before you subscribe.
How do I cancel my subscription or free trial?
Open iOS Settings → your Apple ID → Subscriptions, tap QR & Barcode Smart Scan, and choose Cancel Subscription. If you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends, you will not be charged. Deleting the app does not cancel the subscription.
I want a refund
Refunds for App Store purchases are handled by Apple. Visit reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in with the Apple ID that made the purchase, and request a refund. We can't process refunds directly.
I restored my purchase on a new phone but Pro didn't unlock
Open the app, go to Settings → Restore Purchases, and sign in with the same Apple ID that originally subscribed. If that doesn't work, quit the app, connect to Wi-Fi, and try again. Still stuck? Use the contact form above.
Where is my scan history stored?
Only on your iPhone, in the app's private storage. We do not upload it to any server. If you delete the app, the history is gone.
Does the app work offline?
Yes for scanning and history. The URL safety check and food nutrition lookup need an internet connection because they query external services.
Is my data being tracked or sold?
No. We do not collect personal data, use analytics SDKs, or use advertising SDKs. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Troubleshooting
App crashes on launch
Force-quit the app (swipe up in the app switcher), then reopen. If it still crashes, restart your iPhone. If it still crashes, delete and reinstall — your Pro subscription will restore automatically after signing in.
Link preview or safety check isn't working
Check that you have an internet connection. If you turned off "Safety check" in Settings, the safety check won't run.
Pro didn't unlock after purchase
Wait 30 seconds — Apple's receipt can take a moment. Then open Settings → Restore Purchases. If it still fails, send us a message with a screenshot of your Apple ID Subscriptions page using the contact form above.
