WHY BARCODEGEN

Most barcode scanner apps in 2026 are ad cesspools. You scan a code and get redirected to a pop-up. You generate a Wi-Fi QR and it demands account signup. You export history and hit a subscription wall.

BarcodeGen does none of that.

• No account required. Ever. Your scans stay on your device.
• No cloud. No tracking pixels. No analytics SDK reading your clipboard.
• No subscription. One-time $9.99 unlock if you want ad-free + unlimited history + CSV export. Pay once, yours forever. No renewal, no "pro monthly", no auto-charges.
• No bloat. The APK is under 8 MB. It opens in under a second on a 2019 phone.

WHO IT'S FOR

- Retail and warehouse staff scanning UPC/EAN/Code 128 all day
- Couriers reading PDF417 on shipping labels
- IT admins generating Wi-Fi and vCard QRs for offices and events
- Developers testing Data Matrix, Aztec, and Code 39 output
- Anyone who just wants to scan a poster QR without being data-mined

FREE VS UNLOCK

Free: full scanner, full generator, 50-item history, all 12+ barcode formats, banner ads
Unlock ($9.99 one-time): no ads, unlimited history, CSV export, priority support

PRIVACY

BarcodeGen works fully offline. Camera access is used only for scanning — nothing ever leaves your device. No account, no email, no phone number. We do not collect your scan data. We do not sell or share anything, because we have nothing to sell or share.

ISO-COMPLIANT CODES

Every code BarcodeGen generates is standards-compliant: QR (ISO/IEC 18004), Code 128 (ISO/IEC 15417), EAN/UPC (GS1), PDF417 (ISO/IEC 15438), Data Matrix (ISO/IEC 16022), Aztec (ISO/IEC 24778). Print them on labels, packaging, posters — they will scan on any reader.

FROM THE TEAM BEHIND BARCODEGEN.ORG

BarcodeGen is built by the team behind barcodegen.org, the web-based barcode generator used by small businesses, schools, and indie shops. The app brings the same no-account, no-friction tools to your phone — now with a camera.

Download BarcodeGen. Scan a code. Make a code. Get on with your day.
