What barcode formats can be scanned?

CODE128, EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, UPC-E, CODE39, Codabar, and ITF (Interleaved 2 of 5) formats are supported.

Why is my barcode not being detected?

Ensure the image is clear, well-lit, and the barcode is not damaged. The barcode should be horizontal and fill a good portion of the image.

What image formats are supported?

PNG, JPEG, GIF, and WebP images are supported. Higher resolution images generally work better.

Can I scan from my camera?

Yes! Click the camera button to use your device camera. Position the barcode within the viewfinder.

Is my scanned data private?

Yes! All scanning happens in your browser. No images or data are uploaded to any server.

What is the minimum barcode size?

The barcode should be at least 100 pixels wide in the image. Larger barcodes are detected more reliably.

Can I scan damaged barcodes?

Slightly damaged barcodes may still scan, but heavily damaged ones will fail. Try adjusting the image angle or lighting.

Why does it detect the wrong format?

Some barcode formats are similar. The scanner attempts to identify the most likely format based on the pattern.

Can I scan multiple barcodes at once?

Currently, only one barcode per image is detected. For multiple barcodes, scan them separately.

Does it work with colored barcodes?

Yes, as long as there is sufficient contrast. Dark bars on light background works best.
