ScanShot app review: simple QR code scanning

Introduction

ScanShot is a simple iPhone and iPad app by Pitney Bowes that allows you to scan QR codes or create your own as a means of promoting your business or offering existing and potential customers special offers and discounts.

QR codes can be a highly effective way of sharing your information with others in a concise manner, so if you haven’t considered doing this for your business then I’d definitely recommend thinking about doing so.

Simple Business Promotion

Making a great little addition to the Utilities category of the App Store is this tool which allows you to scan QR codes with your device’s integrated camera or by importing photos straight from your Camera Roll.

This is a great way of accessing contact information such as phone numbers and email addresses, as well as physical postal addresses or website URLs.

Share Your Company Information

The best thing about ScanShot is that it allows you to create your own QR codes to more effectively share your business information with others, and these codes can be used to show your contact information, physical location, and special offers.

This is a fairly simple app as far as barcode and QR code scanner apps go but it does offer some reliable functionality that small businesses should find quite useful.
