No login required.

Point your camera at any barcode and see what it actually encodes. No ads, no sign-up, and scanning works with no connection at all. Barcode Info identifies the code type, verifies the check digit, and tells you where the product's barcode was registered. Scan a QR code and it classifies the content: link, Wi-Fi network, contact card, email, phone number, and more. Scan a shipping label and it reads the fields the label carries. WHAT YOU GET - Symbology identification: EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, UPC-E, Code 128, Code 39, Code 93, Codabar, ITF-14, QR Code, Data Matrix, Aztec, PDF417 - Check-digit validation for product codes (GTIN-8/12/13/14), with UPC-E expanded to its UPC-A equivalent - Country of registration from the GS1 prefix, with country flags, including special ranges such as in-store codes, ISBN, and ISSN - GS1 label fields on GS1-128 and GS1 DataMatrix codes: batch or lot, best before and expiry dates, serial number, pallet number (SSCC), weight and size - Content detection for QR codes: links (with one-tap open in browser), Wi-Fi, contacts, email, phone, SMS, location, calendar events - A photo of every scan: the camera frame the code was found in - Notes on any scan, with your earlier notes offered as one-tap chips - Filters for your history: by kind of code, by date, or scans with a note, a photo or a failed check digit - Scan history saved on your device: reopen any result, swipe to delete, or clear everything at once - On iPad held sideways, the list and the scan side by side - Scan from the Home Screen: press and hold the app icon and pick Scan BARCODE INFO PREMIUM An optional one-time purchase, not a subscription. Everything above stays free. Premium adds: - Folders: sort scans into folders, each with a color of your choice - Export: send your history out as a CSV or text file - Scan one after another: start the next scan straight from the result - More photos per scan: add your own, like the back of the pack or the price tag - Quick preview: hold a scan in the list to see what it holds Premium works with Family Sharing. HONEST BY DESIGN The GS1 prefix shows where the manufacturer registered the barcode, not where the product was made. Barcode Info says so, plainly, instead of pretending otherwise. In-store and company-internal codes are labeled as such rather than mapped to a misleading country. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Scanning and everything the app works out from a code happen on your device. The app goes online only when you buy or restore Premium, and Apple handles the payment. No accounts, no ads, no analytics, no tracking. Your scan history and photos stay on your device.
