Project Overview
QR Scan & Gen (https://qr-scanngen.web.app) is a clean, all-in-one QR code utility built for both personal and professional use. It handles generation, scanning, history management, and sharing in a single app — rated 5 stars on the App Store with users calling it fast, accurate, and the best QR tool they've tried. Built and published by Cuboid, it runs on iPhone, iPad, macOS, and Apple Vision Pro from iOS 12 upward.
The Problem
The QR code space is cluttered with apps that do one thing adequately while burying the rest behind paywalls, ads, or confusing interfaces. Scanners that can't generate. Generators that don't save history. Tools that require an account just to create a Wi-Fi code. For something that should take five seconds, most QR apps make it harder than it needs to be.
There was clear room for a utility that handled the full QR workflow — create, scan, save, share — in one place, cleanly, without unnecessary friction.
Our Solution
QR Scan & Gen was designed around a single standard: every core action should be reachable in under two taps. Generate a code, scan one, retrieve a past code from history, share it — all without switching apps, creating accounts, or navigating menus that exist to justify a subscription.
The app works fully offline for code generation, which matters when you're setting up a product label, a printed menu, or an event badge without reliable connectivity.
Key Features & Capabilities
QR Code Generation — Create codes for URLs, plain text, email addresses, phone numbers, Wi-Fi credentials, calendar events, social media profiles, app download links, and more. The range of supported content types covers personal, professional, and marketing use cases without needing a separate tool for each.
Instant Scanning — Camera-based scanning that's fast and accurate in low light and across both printed and digital surfaces. Gallery scanning is supported for codes in saved images, screenshots, or documents.
Smart History Log — Every scan and every generated code is automatically saved in a chronological log. Revisit, reuse, or share any past code without recreating it from scratch.
Offline Generation — Codes are generated entirely on-device. No internet connection required, no data sent to external servers during creation.
Customizable Experience — Haptic feedback, sound, and camera permissions can all be toggled per user preference. The app adapts to how each person wants to use it rather than enforcing a single interaction model.
Privacy First — User-generated content and scan data are handled on-device. No unnecessary data collection, no advertising profiling tied to content.
Who It's For
Business owners creating QR codes for menus, product packaging, or contact sharing. Event organizers generating codes for registration and access. Students and educators sharing links, resources, and schedules. Anyone who needs to scan a code accurately and reliably without fighting the app to do it.
The 4+ age rating and iOS 12 compatibility reflect the deliberate accessibility of the design — this is a tool built for everyone, not a feature showcase for power users.
Final Outcome
QR Scan & Gen earns its place on a home screen by doing exactly what it promises — instantly, cleanly, every time. It demonstrates Cuboid's ability to ship polished utility apps that compete on quality in a saturated category, without overcomplicating what should be a simple tool. PerkTap is a mobile app I designed and developed, built around a tap-based interaction model focused on quick, engaging user sessions. Each screen presents a clean, colorful interface with fresh and recurring backgrounds paired with carefully chosen color palettes, keeping the experience visually dynamic while staying intuitive and easy to use.
🔹 Key Highlights:
✔️ Intuitive Tap Interaction – Users interact with 1 to 5 color-coded elements per screen, combining simplicity with precision-based interaction design.
✔️ Progressive Experience Flow – Increasing variety and complexity keeps users engaged and coming back.
✔️ Vibrant UI/UX Design – Smooth controls and a clean visual style optimized for both quick check-ins and longer sessions.
✔️ Cross-Platform Availability – Live on the Apple App Store for iPhone and iPad.
✔️ Growth & Referral System – Built-in refer-a-friend feature to drive organic user acquisition.
✔️ Privacy-First Architecture – No user data collected, keeping the app lightweight and privacy-friendly.
✔️ Iterative Development – Continuously shipped improvements including onboarding/tutorial flows, new features, and bug fixes.
🌟 Impact:
PerkTap delivers a polished, accessible user experience centered on simplicity, precision, and retention. With ongoing updates since launch including onboarding improvements and a referral rewards system the app continues to grow its user base while staying true to its core: clean, intuitive, and engaging interaction design.
