## Description

QR & Barcode Scanner uses your camera to instantly scan and decode all major QR code and barcode formats — text, URLs, product codes, contacts, ISBN, calendar events, email, location, Wi‑Fi and more. After automatic decoding the app presents only the relevant actions (open link, add contact, connect to Wi‑Fi, save data, etc.) and includes flashlight support for low‑light scanning.

Beyond scanning, the extension includes a built‑in QR generator so you can create and save QR images to your gallery, plus a searchable scan history for quick access. Designed for simplicity and speed, it’s ideal for shopping, sharing, quick logins, and everyday scanning tasks.
