LiveScan: Scan Text & QR Codes

Point your camera and read the world instantly. Live text, QR & barcode chips, offline translation, receipt-to-CSV and searchable PDF export, all 100% on-device.

Read the world, instantly.

LiveScan turns your camera into a live text engine. Point it at anything like a sign, a receipt, a business card, or a QR code and watch text and barcodes come alive on screen. No "take a photo, wait, crop" routine. It's instant, beautiful, and 100% private.
