Smart QR Scanner is an Android and iOS app published by PikScan to scan and create QR codes and barcodes on your phone. Decoding and history stay on device; PikScan does not receive scan contents.
Who is it for?
- Everyday users scanning menus, posters, packages, or tickets.
- Professionals (retail, logistics, events) who need barcodes and printable label sheets.
- Privacy-conscious users who prefer local history without a mandatory cloud account.
- Content creators generating customized QR codes (URL, Wi‑Fi, contact, etc.) to share or print.

Pricing

What Smart QR Scanner is not
- Not a cloud sync service — history does not sync across devices via PikScan.
- Not a CRM or inventory system — no centralized product database or multi-user analytics.
- Not an online QR generator website — creation happens in the mobile app, not on a PikScan web portal.
- Not ad-free in the free version — Premium removes ads.
