User Reviews

Users praise Barcode Scanners for fast, accurate scanning, wide barcode and parser support, and useful features like continuous scanning and history. It’s praised as free with no ads. However, stability issues on newer iPhone models (camera freezes/out-of-focus and scans stopping after initial use) are notable drawbacks. Some UX annoyances are mentioned in isolated reviews, but overall the app is seen as a strong, practical tool for quick barcode lookups and demonstrations.

Pros

Fast, accurate, and reliable barcode scanning across many 1D and 2D symbologies.
Broad support for barcode types and parsers (DataMatrix and more) enabling versatile scans.
Feature-rich workflow: continuous scanning, duplicate delay, scan history, overlay results, targeting mode, and auto Google search.
No ads and free to use with no mandatory subscription, offering good value.
Simple, easy-to-use interface that provides instant feedback on scan results.

Cons

On newer iPhone models (e.g., iPhone 16/16 Pro Max) the camera feed can freeze or appear out of focus, causing scans to fail.
The app can stop scanning after the first successful scan and may require a reboot to resume.

Recent reviews

Excellent product. Very reliable scanner app for many years on a wide variety of 1D and 2D symbologies. Great demonstration of the Cognex’s capabilities.

I downloaded this app years ago and it just works well, in fact, I used this app at the grocery store to help the cashier read the stacked barcodes that the store scanner would not read. Good job guys !

I use this for reading barcodes in a small grocery store I help manage. The app is easy and quick for what I need. The only flaw I’ve found - and this might depend on a setting that I haven’t found yet - is that it will pad an 8-digit SKU up to 12 digits. Unfortunately, our point-of-sale system needs the original 8-digit SKU. Fortunately, the vast majority of our products have 12-digit SKUs, and this app works great for those.
