About this app
CandyWrapper is the sweetest way to stay safe from sketchy QR codes and links. Every QR code hides a destination you can't see. Stickers get swapped, links get spoofed, and one tap can lead to a phishing page or malware. CandyWrapper unwraps the link first — running it through a multi-stage security pipeline — and gives you a clear verdict before you go anywhere. Sweet means safe to open. Spoiled means we blocked it. No jargon. No guesswork. Just a fast, friendly answer. HOW IT WORKS Point your camera at any QR code, or paste a link. In seconds, CandyWrapper checks it through 10 stages: • Payload inspection • Redirect tracing • Google Safe Browsing • VirusTotal • SSL certificate • Domain age • Phishing detection • Content analysis • Sandboxed preview • Reputation scoring Then it shows a plain-English safety report — and only opens the link if you choose to. CAUGHT ON YOUR DEVICE Instant checks run right on your phone — blocked schemes, look-alike (homoglyph) domains, typosquats, raw IP-address links, suspicious TLDs, URL shorteners, and @-sign tricks — so the obvious traps are stopped before anything leaves your device. CREATE SAFE QR CODES Make QR codes you actually control: • Encrypt the destination • Track every scan • Set expirations and scan limits • Revoke anytime PRIVATE BY DESIGN We open the wrapper, not the candy. CandyWrapper is built by a security company, not an ad company — we check links to protect you, not to profile you. Sign in with Apple is supported. Unwrap it before you tap it.
