Welcome to the FlashScan Pro blog. This site is the editorial companion of the app: step-by-step tutorials, best-practice guides and honest comparisons around QR codes and barcodes.

What you’ll find here

Our articles cover four topic families:

  • Tutorials: share Wi-Fi via QR code, create a vCard business card, scan a code from a photo;
  • Guides: minimum print size, error-correction levels, contrast and accessibility;
  • Comparisons: Code 128 vs EAN-13 vs UPC-A, static vs dynamic QR codes;
  • Privacy: spotting malicious QR codes (quishing), understanding what does — and doesn’t — happen on your device.

Why local processing?

Every time you scan a poster or generate a code containing a Wi-Fi password, the content of that code belongs to you. FlashScan Pro decodes and generates everything in the browser: no upload, no account, no intermediate server. Articles in the Privacy category detail this architecture and its limits; the Why FlashScan Pro page sums it up in a few lines.

Where to start

If you’re new to the app, the simplest way is to try it: open the generator, type a URL, download the PNG. Upcoming articles will cover each feature — starting with payload formats (URL, SMS, email, Wi-Fi, vCard) and the classic pitfalls of printing.
