This scanner works well even with viewing angles far from thr normal to the plane of the code. When I get a device with 4G, I will be often using this scanner to view the real-time bus schedule for whatever stop I'm at. [Buys a $25 smartphone] The scanner copes with bus stop codes in dim light barely visible on the screen.

Never works on my Sony xperia z3. Can't focus on the code. Edit: I have an s7 now and I can auto focus easily in the stock camera app but impossible in this app. Near focusing needs to be fixed or give us manual focus, it focuses properly but then focuses far away. It searches for focus like crazy then settles on infinity it seems. Loves far focus when near focus is needed

I can't scan a qr code if the code is on my phone. I screenshot the qr code and cropped it to scan using the gallery feature but it didn't work. Or maybe I just don't know how to use this app. I can ask others to scan it for me but I thought maybe you guys should know. Other than that, this app is great. Good job! (^^)b

Why do you now need access to my location, photos, media and files? It's worked perfectly in past without these permissions and I see no reason to have them except for highly invasive surveillance. Excellent otherwise, but, giving you only 2 stars due to these severe privacy issues.

Functionality is passable, if it weren't free I'd probably look for something else. Sometimes it fails to scan. I mostly take photos at the store and scan them later at home. The lack of privacy with this app. concerns me. Also the website it takes me to on UPC scans is crappy.

when i first installed it long time ago, i thought this is the only official app to scan qr code, i didn't know that there are other better choices! this app has two problems. 1. it can't focus if you put the qr code too close to the camera. if you move it away, it can focus but it is too small to be scanned. 2. if my machine is in the reverse portrait position, this app can't even read. it can only read qr code when the machine is in regular portrait position. i thought that it was all because of my machine, i was so wrong until today when i installed qr and barcode scanner, it didn't have those two problems. it works perfectly .
