5 ★ Very nice looking, fast and does a better job than my Samsung app.
3 ★ I used this app before and it worked. For some reason today (I re installed on new phone) doesn't read anything. I wish I could send you the pictures, so to check if it is the camera or if it is the app.
1 ★ I urge Google Play Store to take stern action against this kind of mischievous app developers and provide us an option to give negetive 5 stars rating. This app's description doesn't mention about any ads but after installing it, the very first thing it does is ask for what kind of ads i want to see.
3 ★ Sometimes works, sometimes not. For instance with self-made codes the system does not work. Some codes, while on vacation, did not work also.
5 ★ 👏👏👏 Love it! I can download directly the Music that I want to my phone using by just scanning the qr code. Thanks!
5 ★ Fantastic app. Opens quickly and goes straight to scanning. The only way I've ever been willing to scan a qr. A mandatory home screen item for my phone.
