ScanScout - QR Scanner, no ads

Scan any QR or barcode — free, no ads, no tracking, 100% offline. See where a link really goes before you tap. Pay once for Pro, never a subscription.

Scan any QR code or barcode — free, unlimited, and completely offline. No ads, no subscription, no account, no tracking. And before any scanned link opens, ScanScout shows you exactly where it leads — so a sneaky code can't send you somewhere you didn't mean to go.

No ad to sit through before you can scan. No weekly subscription for the basics. No data quietly leaving your phone. Just a fast, private scanner that does what you expect.

SEE WHERE A LINK REALLY GOES Scammers love QR codes. Before a link opens, you see the full web address — and ScanScout flags the tricks: lookalike web addresses, raw IP addresses, link shorteners, and sites that aren't secure. The check runs entirely on your phone, and you decide whether to open it.
