What Is a QR Code?
A QR code (Quick Response code) is a two-dimensional barcode that can store various types of information, such as:
- Website URLs
- Contact details (vCards)
- Wi-Fi credentials
- Product information
- Payment links and tickets
Because QR codes can hold more data than traditional barcodes and are easily scanned by smartphones, they are widely used in marketing, payments, and event management.

ProScan supports multiple formats, making it a versatile tool:
- QR Codes: URLs, text, email addresses, phone numbers, and more.
- Barcodes: Product barcodes on books, groceries, and packaged goods (depending on your device’s camera support).
- Image Files: Upload saved screenshots or photos containing QR codes to decode them without using a camera.
