He has a passion for new apps and unique solutions for day to day utility problems. He also actively reviews Apple AppStore apps to find out which the most in-demand apps and what do they lack. He found out that QR code and barcode scanning apps are trending.
However, anyone QR barcode scanner app doesn’t have all the functionality and features that a user needs. So, he decided to develop the best and easy to use QR code scanner app to help users find details about products and can read barcodes as well. Another unique feature he required was the function to generate unique QR codes for various content types.

We comprehended our client’s requirements and started our work. We developed an easy to use and efficient app that people don’t even need to know how to scan QR codes.
This QR code scanner and barcode scanner scans QR codes and barcodes to provide the app users with the needed information. For this, we used Barcode Lookup APIs and gigantic databases sourced from big retailers and e-commerce sites all over the world.

These QR codes can be of different colors and content types, as available in the app. The app is available in English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Spanish languages.

iOS App Development
The client wanted an iOS app only. We assigned two iOS developers with 2+ years of experience for this project. Both the developers dived into research to understand the working of a Barcode and QR code scanning app. They needed libraries that can help look up such codes and provide product information. They used Barcode Lookup APIs for this function.
They also developed a feature to generate QR codes with different foreground and background colors using code libraries in the backend using PHP. The entire development was completed within 4 months with all the features, testing, and deployment of the app.
