Is This QR Safe?

Don't trust. Always verify.

A QR code is just a link hidden inside an image. Sometimes the link is a coffee menu. Sometimes it's a phishing page that looks exactly like your bank.

Is This QR Safe? (ITQS) is the safety check between scan and tap. Point your camera at any QR code and we'll decode it, follow every redirect, and check the final destination against 70+ trusted security engines — usually in just a few seconds. You see the real link and a clear "safe" or "unsafe" verdict before anything opens in your browser.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Scan a QR code with the in-app camera, or upload an image from your library.
2. We decode the embedded URL and follow every redirect to find where it really leads.
3. The final link is checked against 70+ security engines (powered by VirusTotal). You get a verdict and the real URL — before you tap.

WHY "Is This QR Safe?"

• Catches phishing and malware before clicking, not after the damage is done
• 70+ independent security engines per scan
• See the real destination, not the obfuscated short link
• Scan history with safe / unsafe filters, so you can revisit any check
• Anonymous, approximate location signals help map QR scams in the wild — no precise location stored unless a scan is flagged
• Works with QR codes on posters, menus, parking meters, packages, emails — anywhere

PRIVACY-FIRST

ITQS asks for camera access (to scan) and rough location (only stored when you scan something dangerous, so the community can spot scams in real places). An account is required for security — sign in with Google or a one-time email code.

TRUSTED CHECKS

Powered by VirusTotal — the same multi-engine threat-intel system used by enterprise security teams. Every scan runs through 70+ antivirus engines, URL classifiers, and sandbox systems.
