Control for Xamarin Forms QR code scanner

[Seitron spa]

Hi, there is any control to read/scan QR code? 

I found only SfBarcode to generate them (https://help.syncfusion.com/xamarin/barcode/overview).

Regards,

Hi, using SfBarcode control you can use QR code scan functionality, or by adding ZXing.Net.Mobile NuGet package you can also use this functionality. Refer to this article it shows the use of  ZXing.Net.mobile. Maybe it helps you.

ZXing is too slow to read the barcode.

Hi Jassim, 

Thank you for your update. 

ZXing (zebra crossing) is an open-source tool to decode barcodes within images that fall under the Apache 2.0 license. Barcode OPX is used to optimize the working of ZXing with Syncfusion Essential PDF. We can able to read the barcodes on each page by using Syncfusion.BarcodeReader.OPX library, the performance is depends on the barcode types present the input document.  

We have generated the Syncfusion.BarcodeReader.OPX library with our Volume 1 SP1 release version (19.1.0.63). And we are referring the latest ZXing.Net (0.16.6) from nuGet.org in this sample.  We have attached the sample with product version (19.1.0.63) package and ZXing library (16.0.0). Please try the below sample in your end and let us know the result.

We request you to use this version along with latest ZXing from NuGet in your end. Please try the above sample and let us know if you need any further assistance with this.

Hi Team,

Need a sample regarding the bar code scanner. I am having a basic bar code reader sample as mentioned below. I am having one home page with one simple button, if the user taps the button it takes to new view/page/content page in xamarin forms and opens the bar code reader, but i am facing loading delay issue. Means with zxing my page is taking few mins to load but without zxing barcode it loads without any laggg!! 

Do you have work around for the query.

Kindly do the needful.

Regards,

Team X.
