Description
Scan is the fastest and most user-friendly QR reader and barcode scanner available. If your computer came with a built-in scanner, this would be it. Here is what our reviewers are saying:
“Quick and very reliable. I’d give it six stars if it were possible.” “No ads, beautiful design, and even caught blurry QR codes I didn’t expect it to scan”
HOW THE APP WORKS
To scan a QR code or barcode simply open the app, point the camera at the code, and you’re done! There is no need to take a photo or press a button. Scan will automatically recognize any code your camera is pointing at.
When scanning a QR code, if the code contains a website URL, you will automatically be taken to the site. If the code just contains text, you'll immediately see it. For other formats such as phone numbers, email addresses, or contact info, you will be prompted to take the appropriate action.
PRODUCT BARCODES
Scan recognizes all of the popular barcode types (UPC, EAN, and ISBN) and shows you pricing, reviews, and more about any products you scan. Barcode scanning requires a high-resolution camera in order to work reliably. Cameras on older devices do not provide the resolution or focus required for barcode scanning.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
• Scan using any webcam connected to your PC • View a history list of all of your past scans
DEDICATED TO PERFECTION
Our goal is to make our app the best scanning app in the store. We can’t do this without you. We are dedicated to your satisfaction and need to hear feedback from you. If you have an issue with Scan, please do not write a review of the app saying "it didn't work." This does not help us make things better for you. Instead, please contact us at [email protected] or on Twitter @scan and we'll do our best to help.
REQUIREMENTS
In order to use Scan, your device must have a webcam connected. When scanning codes that redirect to online content, such as websites, you will need Internet connectivity.

Doesn't Work on a Surface 2 by Chris
I bought this app after trying a couple of free ones that didn't work either. This one, for $5.35 including tax is no better than the free ones. Perhaps they should have a list of compatible devices. It’s probably not a long list.

Useless app by Srinivasa G
The screen is rotated by 90degrees on my Dell Venue 8 Pro and cannot use this app. Raised a support request and even after a week didn't get response. I want my money back. Really want to give zero stars.

Doesn't Work by Hal
Surface 3 Pro with Win 8.1 The camera doesn't focus closely enough to fill the rectangle of the program. I tried both front and back cameras, and several lighting scenarios but the resolution was not good enough for the app to recognize. This was a waste of time and money.
