👩‍💻Barcode/QR Code Scanner

We have two types of code scanner available:

1. Barcode scanner

2. QR Code scanner

Barcode Scanner

The barcode scanner feature in NotionApps allows users to scan barcodes using their device's camera without a manual input for the product ID/SKU. NotionApps provides the ability to scan barcodes through a button in the search bar on list screens (View Items/Update Items).

The supported barcode formats are:

1. UPC-A

2. Code 39

3. UPC-E

4. Code 93

5. EAN-8

6. Code 128

7. EAN-13

To enable barcode scanner in the search bar, please follow these steps:

1. Open your app in the app builder.

2. Go to the list screen where you want to add the scanner.

3. In the screen configuration section, click on the "Allow Scan" button.

When a user scans a barcode using the scanner in your app, the scanned data can be used for searching the database. This can be useful for tracking inventory, inputting customer information, and more.

The barcode scanner only works on mobile devices. On desktop, you will get a fixed text "ABCD123456789"

QR Code scanner

QR code scanner works in a similar way as the barcode scanner. When you enable the Show Scanner toggle, you can select the type of scanner as QR Code to allow the scanner to scan QR codes.

If you are looking for a multi-format scanner (scans both QR Code & Barcode) using a single scan, you should reach out to us on [e-mail].
