In this [0] PyCon talk the app is reverse-engineered, and a version that produces a fake QR code that gets verified successfully is created.

It would seem the current approach is fundamentally broken.

It's trivial to hack Android apps. Please see the reverse engineering talk link I posted a few comments up that demonstrates this very app being hacked.

EDIT: Probably shouldn't single out Android. iOS apps can also be modified and resigned with a developer certificate.
