Great for proofing print designs

I have to proof PDFs for print which often contain QR codes, and this makes it so much easier to do than pulling out my phone to shoot a pic of the PDF on the screen. And it shows the exact URL including tracking codes for easy testing.

After an update, it quits (crashes) on startup. It pops a notice to delete the app and download from appstore again, which I've done, but again, it's the same problem. It was a useful and great app before this issue. (I'm on Monterey 12.7.2, 2015 MBP15)

I tried 3 or 4 apps to read QR codes on a mac and this was the only one that was easy to use and worked. It's easy to click and drag pictures into the scanner and scan QR codes without having to take a screenshot.

Existential Garbage * Unlimited = 0

If unlimited is the same thing as nothing, then it's perfect, I had hoped for more than 0. The app doesn't work even after paying the toll for unlimited scans... The application is impossible to use, and the "phone" is nowhere to be seen. Showing all windows provides a tantalizing view of the "phone" alas, you can not use it. Clicking on it makes it disappear. Like Sisyphus, you never reach the climax.

Sorry to hear this. I would love to hear more at the support email. I am aware of this issue but I am not able to reproduce it. If I am able to reproduce it I would fix it and this would benefit others. Update 2.6.3: This mystery bug was solved. The phone window was wrongly restored on a monitor that might have gotten disconnected.

Improved compatibility with upcoming macOS release: - fixed issues related to multi-screen environment (incorrect screen was used for capturing partially visible window; incorrect geometry was used for capturing window on extended screen) - adopting ScreenCaptureKit; please report bugs or send us feedback
