QR Code Reader by TeaCapps review
A mobile QR and barcode scanner with searchable history and inventory workflows.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
QR Code Reader by TeaCapps is a mobile app for scanning and creating QR codes and barcodes, aimed at iOS and Android users who want more than a one-off camera scan. It reads formats including EAN, UPC, Data Matrix, PDF417 and Aztec, and supports links, Wi-Fi credentials, contact details and calendar data. Solo users can use it for everyday scans and saved references; small businesses can draw on its business scanner mode and inventory workflows.
Its strongest distinction is the record-keeping around scans. History can be searched and exported as a CSV file, and scans can be annotated. The app can also read codes from images, while flashlight and zoom support scanning in less convenient conditions. For product barcodes, UPC/EAN lookups provide product information and price lookups. QR creation and sharing covers links, Wi-Fi and contact details, making this a broader utility than a reader alone. Integrations listed include Amazon, eBay, Google, iCloud, Dropbox and Google Drive.
The freemium model includes a free plan, while some features may require an in-app purchase; the published product information does not specify paid-tier pricing or exactly which capabilities require payment. That makes it sensible to check the in-app options if a specific workflow is essential. It suits people who want scan history, exports or inventory-oriented use across either major mobile platform. Those seeking a desktop tool, or a scanner whose purchase terms are fully clear before installation, may prefer another option. Email is the listed support channel.
