Netigen Utilities presents new app: QR Code and Barcode Scanner. It’s perfect tool for everyday use. QR Codes and barcodes are everywhere now – with our app they will have no secrets from you! Functions: 1. Scanning QR Codes or barcodes – open app, scan code with your camera, and here you are! You don’t need to take a photo or pressing any button. It’s that easy! 2. Reading QR Codes and barcodes from pictures. Open photo from your device – code will be scanned immediately from the picture. 3. Creating QR Codes. It’s a simple method of sharing data with your friends. Choose from your contacts, bookmarks, apps or paste URL – our app will generate QR Code in a flash! When you scan a QR code, containing website URL, you will be taken to that site. Codes containing only text will show you this text. Other formats (phone numbers, email addresses, or contact info), you will be prompted to take the appropriate action. Netigen Utilities: QR Code and Barcode Scanner recognizes most of the popular barcode types (UPC, EAN, and ISBN) and shows you pricing, reviews, and more information about anything you scan. To scan barcodes, you need a newer device. Cameras on older devices don’t provide the resolution or focus required for scanning barcodes. Warning! Our app uses camera built-in your phone. Devices without it cannot work. Scanning codes, directing to online content, requires also Internet connectivity.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Octovigintuple Calc at none against Smart Barcode Scanner's 1. Octovigintuple Calc also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 22 months). Smart Barcode Scanner's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.8.3). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
