Read full descriptionHide full description
BoxCode turns an iPhone into a focused shipping-container record tool. Point the camera at an ISO 6346 container identifier or choose an existing photo. BoxCode reads the marking on device, reconstructs common OCR errors, and verifies the check digit before a record can be saved. CAPTURE WITH CONFIDENCE • Scan container identifiers with the camera or Photo Library • Validate ISO 6346 check digits before saving • Review ambiguous results instead of accepting unsafe autofills • Correct or enter identifiers manually when markings are difficult KEEP USEFUL EVIDENCE • Save a container code, seal number, notes and timestamp • Optionally attach coordinates and the evidence photo • Review verified records in a clean local history EXPORT WITH BOXCODE PRO • Try five verified records free • Unlock unlimited records and CSV export with one lifetime purchase • No subscription, account or advertising PRIVATE BY DESIGN Container photos and recognized text are processed on the device. BoxCode does not operate a user-account or container-data server, and it contains no third-party analytics or advertising SDKs. Records stay on the device unless you choose to export or share them. BoxCode is an identification and record-keeping aid. Always confirm visible markings before relying on a record for operational, customs, safety or legal decisions.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Digital WS at none against BoxCode's 1. Digital WS also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
