Thanks so much for the extremely well thought out and versatile app. I put up a scan test on my website in about 5 min. Thanks to the ease and docs. ### 5/5 — Simply the best! *2015-10-05* Tried many apps but this one did exactly what I wanted and gave me 0 problems. Love it! ### 5/5 — Bingo! *2013-05-13* This app is just what I needed to utilise the linea pro scanning jacket without displaying extra tool bars or unnecessary functionality. Also with the foresight to allow full screen and rotation lock making it ideal to wrap around a web page application. Cheers guys! ### 2/5 — Broken in IOS6 *2013-04-03* Worked Great in ios5 Nsport timeout error in ios6 with 1D reader Also support for 2D units would be great ### 5/5 — Great free app *2012-11-10* App works great. Developer's website is down as of this review. Just go into Settings (in iOS, not the app itself) and then click "WebBarcode". Put your own URL in the URL field. ### 1/5 — Did not work for me *2012-11-06* Message comes up right away, hope they will fix it. ### 5/5 — Great, Fantastic! *2012-05-19* For knocking out scans into web forms or searches, this hits the mark! We use it as a product inventory look up tool. Load it it goes to our search bar on our site, scan it and BAM!! Its great. ### 5/5 — Works great *2012-02-08* Works great. Responsive dev. ### 5/5 — Great App. Mag and Barcode *2011-08-17* The JS looks like it does a good job of passing the data to the DOM. Just wish there were a few more options in settings. Please update to include options for battery backup power and safari options like don't recognize phone numbers etc. ## Frequently asked questions about Web Barcode ### What is Web Barcode used for?

Unfortunately, that's the last version supported by the 5th generation iPod Touch so it still sees a good bit of use. Thanks to all who reported the issue! ### 6 — 2018-05-14 Now with Zebra printer support! * Fixes bugs with accessing camera and photo library from file inputs. * Fixed bug that prevented callbacks fired on document's "BarcodeScanned" event from firing ### 5.1 — 2017-11-02 A bug fix and (small) feature! * Turns out the new "Fill form inputs" setting was filling inputs even when it was turned off. It should now respect the user settings and not fill when that's off. * While we were fixing that bug we also made the input selection a bit better. It'll now search for the first text input matching: * An element with the css class `.webbarcode` * The text element that is focused * The first input on the page that is not a radio, checkbox or submit ### 5.0 — 2017-10-16 Bugfix for iOS 11 that prevented scans from the LineaPro from being sent to the web view. ## Apps similar to Web Barcode | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [WjazdPRO](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/wjazdpro/id6743132649) | — | Free | Utilities | | [QWedge](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/qwedge/id967063582) | 2.6 (5) | Free | Utilities | | [iScanBrowser](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/iscanbrowser/id427430406) | — | Free | Utilities | | [ProScan-Mobile Barcode Reader](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/proscan-mobile-barcode-reader/id1136617702) | — | Free | Utilities | | [3D Flash Camera(Intl)](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/3d-flash-cameraintl/id6749049442) | 1.0 (1) | Free | Utilities | | [Spill Tab](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/spill-tab/id6754096849) | 5.0 (4) | Free | Utilities | ## More apps by Nathan Stitt - [MyClientSpot](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/myclientspot/id1645735480) - [JobTimey](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/jobtimey/id6756465224) - [tinycld](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/tinycld/id6762420971) All apps by Nathan Stitt: https://appshunter.io/developer/332502408 ## Related topics [argosity](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/argosity) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
