Build Apps for Mobile Scanners

Low Code Apps for Scanning Barcodes

Many industries, including retail, logistics, healthcare, shipping, and manufacturing, rely on handheld scanners for collecting information. Data captured by the scanner can be used to update inventory levels, order statuses, customer information, and other data in real time.

However, the scanner alone is not enough: data collected must be parsed and processed before integrating with backend databases and systems. Support for mobile scanners in MobileTogether makes that easier than ever before.

In addition to support for scanning barcodes and QR codes with a device camera, MobileTogether apps can store and processes codes from handheld scanners. MobileTogether customers can take advantage of its low-code approach to rapid app development to build these types of solutions in record time – without the need for specialized mobile development teams and long development cycles. MobileTogether’s affordable, scalable pricing model makes apps that connect to mobile scanners as accessible to small businesses as to large industrial organizations.

Test and Debug Scanning Apps

As you are working, the built in app simulator in MobileTogether Designer lets you run your app and test the barcode scanning functionality with sample data. You can test logic, view the UI as it will appear on a variety of devices, and examine changes in workflow data during execution. MobileTogether also includes automated testing and an enterprise-grade app debugger for more extensive testing.

These comprehensive testing and debugging tools combined with MobileTogether's low-code approach to rapid app development allow teams to add previously complex features like mobile scanner integration — without needing to write extensive code. This dramatically speeds up the development process, especially in industries where access to real-time data is critical. Download the free MobileTogether Designer to get started.
