Otentik Code Reader is the free reader for Otentik trust network Visible Digital Seals (VDS) and 2D-Doc codes. Scan the code on a document: the app checks its signature, issuer and revocation, then shows the certified data. The app reads 2D codes (DataMatrix, QR Code and PDF417) compliant with ISO 22376 and the Otentik network extensions, as well as 2D-Doc codes. Any change to the data breaks the electronic signature: Otentik Code Reader detects it, confirms the authenticity of the data and the legitimacy of the issuer, and shows the information in one of the languages defined by the use case.
