Choose the barcode standard your workflow expects, enter the identifier, and build encoder-checked artwork you can shape for a label or asset context. Everything runs locally on the device — no account, no network. MATCH THE IDENTIFIER TO THE FORMAT Generate barcodes spanning retail, books, logistics, industry, tickets, and postal work. The shipped set includes EAN-13, UPC-A, ISBN-13, Code 128, ITF-14, Data Matrix, PDF417, Aztec, and specific GS1 and postal formats. Each input is checked by its actual encoder before creation. For EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, ISBN-13, and ITF-14, enter the identifier body and let the app complete the check digit. Paste rows or import a CSV, TSV or TXT column to validate and create a whole batch in one run. SHAPE THE ARTWORK FOR ITS CONTEXT Start from ready-made style presets for contexts such as product tags, shipping labels, tickets, and asset tags. Add a title, show or hide the encoded value, adjust linear-bar height, and choose foreground and background colors. The selected styling stays with its local history record. EXPORT SOMETHING A PRINTER CAN USE Send a full label sheet to PDF on A4 or Letter, or export a single code as vector SVG that stays sharp at any size. Print Studio lays the codes out on a grid with protected padding, so a screenshot is never the delivery format. READ CODES FROM THE CAMERA OR PHOTOS Read supported non-QR formats with the camera or from a saved photo. When one photo contains several codes, the app returns the distinct results; continuous scanning keeps a longer run moving and reports total, unique and repeat counts. Detected links, email, SMS, phone numbers, locations, and plain text lead to the relevant next action. FIND AND REUSE PAST CODES Generated and scanned records stay on the device in a searchable history separated by source. Pin the identifiers that matter, reopen a design, or reuse its content in another format. Note: this app focuses on linear and 2D matrix barcodes and does not generate or scan QR codes. Saving or sharing barcode images, exporting PDF or SVG, and exporting selected records to CSV require a purchase. Start with one identifier and build encoder-checked barcode artwork shaped for the context in which it will appear.

Label Printer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Print perfectly aligned address labels onto the label sheets you already own, straight from your iPhone. Enter the code printed on your box, type or paste your list, and every label lands exactly inside its cell — no rulers, no misprints, no wasted sticker sheets. Most label apps guess at spacing. Label Printer uses the real grid geometry for each sheet code (30-per-sheet address, shipping, return, name badge, round, file folder and more), so what you see on screen is what prints on the page. Import from Contacts, paste a whole list to auto-fill the grid, drop in a QR or barcode, then send it to any AirPrint printer or export a print-ready PDF. WHAT YOU GET - Address labels that line up dead-center on the real grid for your sheet code - Paste a CSV or list and auto-fill every cell at once, one address per label - Pull names and mailing addresses straight from your Contacts - Add QR, Code 128, EAN-13, PDF417 or Aztec codes to any label - Print over AirPrint or export a sharp, print-ready PDF to share or archive - Style each cell with fonts, color, alignment, bold, italic and auto-fit sizing PERFECT FOR - Small shops printing return and shipping labels for every order - Anyone mailing invitations, holiday cards or newsletters in bulk - Event hosts printing name badges and place tags fast - Organizers labeling folders, jars, bins and inventory WHY NOT JUST USE A WORD PROCESSOR TEMPLATE Desktop templates drift by a few millimeters and ruin the whole sheet. Label Printer maps each design to the exact cell coordinates of your sheet code, so column one never bleeds into column two — and you do it all from your phone. PRIVACY Your labels, contacts and lists stay on your device. Nothing is uploaded to a server. FULL ACCESS Label Printer is free to try with 3 full outputs. Unlock unlimited printing and PDF exports plus batch auto-fill (paste a whole list and populate every cell at once) with a single subscription or one-time purchase: - Weekly - Yearly - Lifetime (one-time, unlocks everything forever) Payment is charged to your Apple ID. Subscriptions auto-renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel anytime in Settings. Lifetime is a one-time purchase.

Barcode Generator・Scanner's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
