Great app for scanning and generating QR codes, barcodes, and lots of different formats. In any case, enough for an average person like me. You can keep a history, which is cool, and export in png (classic) or svg (vector) format. What's more, the type of barcode can be detected, such as books, food products, country of registration, and/or commercial products. Thanks to OpenFoodFact and OpenLibrary from the Internet Archive, you can get more information about either one. I don't know how it works on other open source apps, but in terms of usability and functionality, I have no reason to change ^^

Probably the best QR code and barcode app as it can scan, keep an history, generate them and even integrate with OpenFoodFacts, OpenPetFoodFacts, OpenBeautyFacts and MusicBrainz. All of this in a free and open source app !? AMAZING !
