## About
Simple QR is a lightweight, privacy-first QR and barcode app. It’s designed to be fast and easy to use for everyday scanning and QR creation, with a clean UI and **no backend**, **no ads**, and **no data collection**. It works offline (except for actions you explicitly trigger, like opening a link or searching the web).
It's now available on the following platforms.

- **Bookmark** frequently used items for quick access
- **Backup/restore** your records
### Actions & utilities

- Quick tools like **copy to clipboard**, **web search**, and **Base64 encode/decode**
### Personalize
