Barcode-x app review: fast and simple barcode reading

Barcode-x

Price: Free

Barcode-x by KJTeam is for those people looking for a full-featured and extremely fast barcode reader.

If you're looking for the ultimate barcode reader this may just be the solution you're searching for. This app can be used for document preparation, inventory, and used to search for products online. It is a multi-feature app that goes much further than your average barcode reader.

Features of this app include the ability to edit the description of any item you scan, continuous and single shot scan mode, edit the quantity of each item, and manual and autofocus modes. A number of barcodes are accepted, which are UPC, EAN, QR CODE, FARMACODE, and CODE 39. There is flash control, iTunes file sharing, and you can even search the Internet for barcodes.

If you'd like you can send your barcode information by email and then open it in a database program. These programs include Oracle, Microsoft Access, MySQL, and SQL Server. The app also supports exported snapshot files (JPG and PNG) and CSV/TXT files. For the full version of the app you can make the in-app purchase.

Barcode-x was updated on May 11, 2013 and currently has no customer ratings at the time of publishing.

I found this program to be quite multi-dimensional and as promised by the developer went much further than the average barcode reader while staying user-friendly.

Pros
• Supports a number of barcode types
• Fast and reliable scanning in a couple of optional modes
• Supports export of information through email

Cons
• In order to access all the features you’ll need to upgrade to the full paid version
