Introducing our versatile app and FlooGoo FMA100 Bluetooth Dongle: The app seamlessly scans text, QR codes, and barcodes, sending the data to host systems through our innovative FlooGoo FMA100 Bluetooth Dongle. Obtain your FlooGoo FMA100 dongle at https://www.flairmesh.com/Dongle/FMA100.html. The input to host systems is in standard USB keyboard format, ensuring compatibility with POS machines, library book management systems, and various text or spreadsheet applications on Windows, Mac, or Linux. No additional drivers are required. Regardless of the host's operating system, if the scanned result contains only ASCII characters, no further configurations are necessary. For non-ASCII characters, refer to our user guide for proper input method configuration. Say goodbye to wired or wireless QR and barcode scanners; our app can also perform OCR and instantly transmit the text to your host using the FMA100 dongle. You can also use the app independently without the dongle for scanning text, QR codes, and barcodes. There are no ads in the app. Supported QR and barcode formats include linear formats such as Codabar, Code 39, Code 93, Code 128, EAN-8, EAN-13, ITF, UPC-A, and UPC-E, as well as 2D formats like Aztec, Data Matrix, PDF417, and QR Code. Text recognition supports Latin characters by default, with the option to select one additional language from Chinese, Devanagari, Japanese, or Korean.
