Web Barcode is an embedded browser that runs fullscreen without any controls. It is written to work with: -- The Linea Pro magstrip reader / barcode scanner -- KOAMTAC KDC MFI enabled barcode scanners -- Zebra mobile printers such as the QLn series It converts all swipe & scans recorded by the Linea Pro or KOAMTAC device into HTML events and provides a Javascript API for printing. For a complete api reference please visit Argosity.com For more information on the scanner hardware please visit: * http://www.ipclineapro.com/ * https://www.zebra.com/us/en/products/printers/mobile.html * https://koamtac.com By itself this app is only an simple web browser. Recording the scans and swipes as well as printing requires a specially written webpage with some simple Javascript. By default the application will load a webpage from our servers, which simply demonstrates the capabilities and has instructions on how to write your own programming instructions. The default page can be changed to anything you desire in the Settings App under Web Barcode. The screen shots are only intended to demonstrate what is possible with the browser, the application(s) shown on them are not included.
Retro Numpad
Read full descriptionHide full description
Retro Numpad brings back the feel of a real desktop calculator — a warm, matte case, a glowing LCD readout, and number keys that actually click when you press them. Built for fast, everyday math: addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and percentages, with chained operations so you can work through a full expression without losing your place. The display keeps your last expression in view above the current result, just like a physical calculator's tape. FEATURES — Full arithmetic: +, −, ×, ÷, % — Chained operations (2 + 3 × 4, entered left to right) — Decimal entry, backspace, and all-clear — Clear "Error" state instead of a crash on divide-by-zero — Light and dark mode, each with its own tuned palette — Haptic feedback and a physical key-press animation — No accounts, no ads, no tracking
