<b>WHAT IS A QR CODE?</b>
It's the <i>evolution</i> of normal barcodes. They can hold more information and are more flexible. QR codes can be used to share Contact information, links, geo-locations and more.
<b>HOW TO SCAN A QR CODE?</b>
• Open QR Droid Private, it will begin scanning immediately
• Center QR code in your camera's viewfinder
• Scanned information will be shown, without pressing anything
QR Droid Private has the <b>best previewer</b>. If scanned QR code had a link to a YouTube video, you'll see video's image, title and duration, immediately! If it has a geo-location, you'll see a mini Google Map; and so on.
<b>HOW TO SHARE INFORMATION</b>
• Open QR Droid Private
• Touch button "Create", followed by any option, according to what you want to share
• Follow on-screen instructions until you see a QR code
• Show that QR code to a friend. He'll be able to scan it with his camera from your screen, and get shared information!
<b>ABOUT PERMISSIONS</b>
• <i>INTERNET</i>: QR Droid lets you decode from a QR code in Internet, given its URL
• <i>ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE</i>: You can set QR Droid to show preview of webpages only while using WiFi, because that feature can use a lot of data
• <i>WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE</i>: You can save generated QR code in your SD card
• <i>CAMERA</i>: To scan codes from camera. The app accesses the camera <b>only</b> when you ask it to scan a code.
• <i>FLASHLIGHT</i>: QR Droid lets you turn your camera flashlight on to improve light conditions
• <i>INSTALL_SHORTCUT</i>: QR Droid lets you create shortcuts to your most-used features, to acces them with a single tap!
<b>Note</b>: Unlike "<i>QR Droid</i>", "<i>QR Droid Private</i>" does not ask for permissions <i>READ_CONTACTS</i> and <i>READ_HISTORY_BOOKMARKS</i>. Because of this, you'll need to <b>enter all data manually</b> to generate QR codes from Contacts and Bookmarks. If you want this feature, install "<i>QR Droid</i>" (<i>http://q.qr.ai</i>) instead of "<i>QR Droid Private</i>". All your information <b>is secure and won't ever leave your device, no matter what version of QR Droid you use</b>.

Useful, handy tool! Deep gratitude for respecting my privacy & not gathering personal info. I avoid many apps for overstepping privacy permisions.

Love that the developer respects privacy (and still allowing ads) but not that it relies on a 3rd party that does not respect privacy to use camera

would be awesome if there was a dolphin addon for sites without downloadable qr codes.

Not "complete". Still needs an external app.
