Barcode Generator/Reader


QR codes are all the rage these days, and if you’ve got anAndroid, you hold in your hand the power to unlock the mysteries of the QR code-spackled world.
These distinctive barcodes are generally square and rendered in simple black-and-white blotches. You’ll find them on TV shows, in print publications, in subway advertisements… Heck, we’re willing to say marketers will slap a QR code on anything that doesn’t move or talk. QR code clothing is also available.
QR codes are used to reveal more information about a product, service, event or person. Generally, they direct the scanning device to a special URL, video, coupon, event page, email address, or other digital signpost with more details and content.
To scan the codes, all you need is a mobile device with a camera and an app to interpret the data in the code.
