Ratings and reviews

Wow...just wow...After trying several barcode scanners -none of which worked well- I tried this one. The barcode reading was super fast and accurate. To keep scanning a quick continue button sped up the multiple readings I needed to take. When done I just emailed myself a .cvs file with all the scanned items. The previous apps either did not do what they advertised or erased over 35% of scans. The App was intuitive with loads of settings to fine-tune and capabilities to share galore.

This is an excellent app with a lot of configurations for more advanced uses. I have installed (and the uninstalled) many, many barcode apps and this is probably the best. The ability to parse a GS1 barcode is a great feature. The only option I wish was in the app would be the ability for it to show hidden characters such as start/stop characters, group separators, etc.

GET THIS NOW!! I've tried loads of bar and qr code scanners and this one is far and away the best. In a class of it's own. It picks up and captures codes so frikkin fast... Sometimes with only half the length of the barcode bars in frame. It can read about every type of code; micro qrs, postal for many countries & much more. Theres more settings allowing user optimal scanning flexibility
