Never Fall for a Fake QR Code Again
Advanced AI protection catches QR scams that other scanners miss—before you click. Get instant peace of mind with multi-source threat detection that eliminates annoying false alarms.
Protection That Actually Works
Stop relying on single-source scanners that miss threats or generate constant false alarms. QRsafer's multi-engine approach gives you the confidence to scan anything—knowing you'll get accurate results every time.
Catch What Others Miss
Multiple security engines working together catch 3x more threats than single-source scanners. Like having several security experts verify every link before you click.
No More False Alarms
Stop wasting time on constant false warnings. Cross-verification means when you see a red alert, you know it's real—and when you see green, you can click with confidence.
Always Up-to-Date Protection
New scams emerge daily. QRsafer's real-time threat intelligence adapts instantly to protect you from tomorrow's threats today—including brand-new scams other scanners haven't seen yet.
Works Where You Need It
Restaurants, parking meters, product packaging—QR codes are everywhere. QRsafer's mobile-first design gives you protection at your fingertips, exactly when and where you need it.
Your Privacy Matters
No tracking. No data collection. No selling your information. Your scanning habits are your business—and nobody else's.

To get started with QRsafer, simply download the app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android). Open the app and you'll be guided through a quick setup process. Grant camera permissions when prompted, and you're ready to start scanning QR codes safely. For first-time users, we recommend trying the free version to experience our basic protection features before upgrading to Premium for comprehensive multi-source threat detection.
QRsafer works by intercepting QR code scans before they can harm your device. When you scan a QR code, our app analyzes the embedded URL or data through multiple security engines in real-time. We check against known threat databases, analyze URL patterns, verify domain reputation, and cross-reference multiple security sources. If a threat is detected, we block access and show you exactly why the code was flagged. For safe codes, you proceed with confidence knowing it's been thoroughly vetted.
A QR (Quick Response) code is a two-dimensional barcode that can store various types of data, including URLs, text, contact information, or app commands. Created in 1994 for the automotive industry, QR codes have become ubiquitous in modern life - from restaurant menus to payment systems. While convenient, they've also become a vector for cyberattacks, as users can't see where a QR code leads before scanning, making security scanning essential.
Scanning untrusted QR codes poses several risks: Phishing attacks that steal credentials through fake login pages, malware downloads that compromise your device, financial fraud through payment redirection, data theft via malicious forms, privacy invasion through tracking mechanisms, and social engineering attacks. QRsafer protects against all these threats by analyzing QR codes before they can cause harm.
Without a security scanner like QRsafer, it's nearly impossible to determine if a QR code is safe just by looking at it. Warning signs include: QR codes in unexpected locations, stickers placed over original codes, requests for sensitive information after scanning, pressure to scan quickly, and codes from untrusted sources. QRsafer removes the guesswork by analyzing every code through multiple security engines before you access the content.
QRsafer's multi-source detection system is designed to catch the widest range of threats possible. We detect: phishing sites, malware downloads, scam websites, fraudulent payment pages, credential harvesters, and suspicious redirects. While no security solution is 100% perfect, our cross-verification approach significantly reduces both false positives and false negatives compared to single-source scanners.
Built-in QR scanners (like iPhone's Camera app or Android's Google Lens) only read QR codes - they don't analyze them for threats. QRsafer acts as a security layer that checks every code before you access it. Think of built-in scanners as door openers, while QRsafer is your security guard checking who's at the door before letting them in.
QRsafer is built on a privacy-first foundation. We don't collect personal information, track your location, or sell your data. Scanned URLs are analyzed through encrypted channels and immediately discarded after threat assessment. Your scan history is stored locally on your device and can be deleted anytime. We're GDPR compliant and transparent about our minimal data practices.
QRsafer's multi-source approach delivers industry-leading accuracy. By cross-referencing multiple security engines, we achieve: 99.9% threat detection rate, near-zero false positives, real-time threat intelligence updates, and comprehensive coverage of known and emerging threats. Our system is continuously refined based on global threat data and user reports.
When QRsafer detects a threat: 1) Access is immediately blocked, 2) A clear warning screen appears, 3) Threat details explain the specific danger, 4) The scan is logged in your history for reference, 5) Premium users get detailed reports with threat intelligence. You can choose to proceed at your own risk (not recommended) or safely close the warning.
QRsafer's threat map visualizes QR code threats worldwide in real-time. This crowdsourced intelligence helps identify threat hotspots, emerging attack patterns, and regional scam trends. Premium users contribute to and benefit from this global protection network, making everyone safer through shared threat intelligence.
Premium unlocks QRsafer's full protection suite: Multi-source threat detection using 5+ security engines, zero false positives through cross-verification, instant results without ads, unlimited scan history, detailed threat reports, priority support, and family sharing options.

QRsafer requires iOS 13.0+ or Android 6.0+. The app needs camera permissions for scanning and internet connection for threat verification. Storage requirements are minimal (<50MB), though scan history may use additional space. For optimal performance, we recommend keeping your device OS updated and maintaining a stable internet connection while scanning.
Common issues and solutions: Camera not working - check permissions in device settings. Slow scanning - ensure good lighting and steady hand. Can't access safe sites - check your internet connection. Subscription not recognized - restore purchases in app settings. For persistent issues, our support team is available at support@qrsafer.com with typical response times under 24 hours.
While rare with our multi-source system, if you encounter a false positive or missed threat, report it through the app's feedback feature. Our security team investigates all reports within 24-48 hours. Your reports help improve protection for millions of users. Premium users get priority investigation and direct responses to their reports.
Stay safe with these practices: Only scan QR codes from trusted sources, be suspicious of QR code stickers in public places, verify the URL preview before proceeding, never enter passwords or payment info after scanning unless you initiated the transaction, use QRsafer for ALL scans - even from seemingly trusted sources, and keep your app updated for latest threat protection.
