Free for Android

QR codes and barcodes, with no permissions.

Make codes in your colours and scan any photo. BarQR never asks for your camera, files or photos.

Permissions to grant

BarQR is built on parts of Android that do the sensitive work for it, so there is nothing to allow.

  • Camera Not requested

    Google Play services opens the camera and hands BarQR only the decoded result.

  • Photos and videos Not requested

    Android's photo picker gives BarQR just the one photo you choose.

  • Files and storage Not requested

    Saved codes go to Pictures/BarQR through Android's media store, which needs no permission.

Find codes in any photo

Every code in a picture gets a green outline. Draw a box around a tiny one and BarQR zooms in to read it.

Seven formats, each one checked

BarQR reads back every code it makes and warns you if it might not scan, before you print it.

  • QR Code
  • EAN-13
  • UPC-A
  • Code 128
  • Code 39
  • Data Matrix
