Overview
The iOS Barcode Scanner SDK is a powerful and easy-to-integrate software development kit for turning smartphones and tablets into fast and reliable barcode scanners.
The SDK utilizes the device's camera, which can be freely switched. You can also apply various filters to narrow down the results by barcode type or content, with regex pattern support to ensure you only capture the specific barcodes relevant to your application.
It operates entirely offline on the user's device and takes only 0.04 seconds to scan barcodes. Scans are accurate even under challenging conditions, including damaged, small, or distant barcodes and low-light environments.
Thanks to the Ready-To-Use UI Components (RTU UI), you can integrate the SDK's scanning functionalities with only a few lines of code. This way, you can benefit from tried-and-true UX design and straightforward integration while still being able to customize the visual appearance to match your brand.
If you want full control over the barcode scanner's appearance, you can instead use the SDK's Classic UI Components (Classic UI) to build a fully customized scanning experience yourself.

Requirements
Operating system
- iOS 13 and higher
IDE
- Xcode 14.0 and higher
No internet connection required
The Scanbot SDK works completely offline. It does not even contain any networking code. This can easily be verified by routing all networking traffic coming from the app through a proxy.
All data generated by the Scanbot SDK is only stored on the end user's device and in absolutely no case ever transferred to a server or cloud service controlled by us. You have full control over how you upload the scans and data to your backend.
Simulators/emulators
While it is possible to test your app with the Scanbot SDK on simulators/emulators, we strongly recommend using real iOS/Android devices.
Depending on the emulated camera, you may not be able to test and evaluate the full functionality of the Scanbot SDK.
