What this app will do for me ?
--------------
This app is a free 1D and 2D (QRCode) barcode scanner.
It will scan barcodes (read "other info" for list of formats supported) and send scanned codes by email, or save them for later use, or paste/copy codes into other apps, or search on the web.
It will not check for prices.

Great for small stores, library, and also at home !

--------------
To start the scan, tap on the "TAP TO START SCAN" button (or shake te device), and the camera will start, ready to scan a code.
Now make the camera look at a barcode.
Please make sure your camera is correctly aligned with the barcode to scan (vertical or horizontal, not oblique).
Please make sure that the code is well ligthed and on focus (move the device to get well the code).
When the barcode is detected, it will be surrounded by a green square and it will be decoded and written in the "CODES SCANNED" list.

If you have problems to get the code scanned, when the camera is on, tap the info button to get help on how get a successful scan.

Now you can use this app to scan barcodes with your web apps.
If you have a web app that you need to input barcodes, you can start the app, scan barcode, and return barcode content, with just one http url !

Just use an url like this:
bar-code://scan?callback=[callback url]
(where "callback" is the url return url to your web app)

Barcode content will be added at the end:
?barcode=[barcode content][&other parameters]

So, for example, using this url:
bar-code://scan?callback=http://www.mysite.com

the callback url after barcode scan will be
http://www.mysite.com?barcode=1234567890

if you need extra parameters, just add them to the callback url
bar-code://scan?callback=http://www.mysite.com&user=roberto

then the callback url after barcode scan will be
http://www.mysite.com?barcode=1234567890&user=roberto

You can test the app is working with this url:
