Description
QR Guard is a free, privacy-focused QR code and barcode scanner that helps you stay safe when scanning QR codes. Unlike basic QR scanners that immediately open links, QR Guard shows you exactly what’s inside a QR code first — so you stay in control.
Scan QR codes safely by previewing links, text, and actions before anything opens. QR Guard reveals the real destination behind QR codes, helping you avoid malicious links, fake websites, and unsafe redirects.
KEY FEATURES
• Transparent QR scanning — view the raw content of every QR code before taking action
• Safe link preview — inspect URLs, detect suspicious domains, redirects, and insecure connections
• Smart QR recognition — identify websites, Wi-Fi networks, emails, phone numbers, SMS messages, and vCards

• Optional VirusTotal integration — use your own API key to check links against 70+ antivirus engines
• Scan history — securely saved with iCloud and CloudKit support

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER
QR Guard provides tools to help you inspect and understand QR code contents, but it cannot detect every scam, malicious link, or security threat. Always use your own judgement when opening links or taking actions. Use of this app is at your own risk.
