About this app

IMb Scanner is a free app that uses your phone/tablet camera to scan USPS Intelligent Mail Barcodes (IMb) on mail envelopes.

This app only reads IMb neither POSTNET, nor any other kind of barcode. For reference of what IMb is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligent_Mail_barcode.

Ratings and reviews

The app does what it is supposed to do. It reads the IMb on your letters/postcards. If you don't understand what it is telling you from the numbers, basically it is telling you the STID (service type identifyer), the MID (Mailer ID) and the zip code. The reason for 4 stars is that it doesn't always focus at first and takes a little bit of moving the phone back and forth to get it to focus. I use it during my job to help my customers.

Only app that I could find that reliably scans IMb. Wish it didn't default to landscape, but I can live with that. For those whining about focus issues, try tapping your screen once while hovering the red line over the barcode to force focusing, this works consistently for me. Neet app! Thanks!

This app works perfectly, I've been using it for years. Always decodes the IM barcodes I need it to. Sometimes the camera focus can be a little weird, but all I have to do is close and open the app for it to refocus, very easy. I like that the app is very clean and simple to use, you just point and shoot!
