Getting started with the .NET MAUI Barcode Scanner SDK's Custom UI

Permission validation

Custom UI Components do not automatically validate camera access permissions. It's up to developers to request and secure these permissions within their applications.

Before integrating camera functionalities, ensure that your app has obtained the necessary permissions to provide users with a seamless experience.

MAUI

For MAUI applications, see our example on how to request camera permissions to ensure smooth operation:

BarcodeSDK.MAUI.Example/Common/Validation.cs

See full example on GitHub

.NET Android

Since Android 6.0 (API level 23) you also have to implement a suitable permission requesting and handling at runtime. For more details, see the Android docs "Request App Permissions"

private string[] permissions = new string[] { Manifest.Permission.Camera };

BarcodeSDK.NET.Droid.Example/Activities/ClassicComponents/BarcodeClassicComponentActivity.cs

.NET iOS

For .NET iOS applications, see our example on how to request camera permissions to ensure smooth operation:
