About Barcode Selection

Barcode Selection enables you to increase scanning accuracy and prevent users from scanning the wrong code in scenarios where there are multiple barcodes present, such as a crowded shelf, an order catalog with barcodes printed closely together, or a label with multiple barcodes.

Barcode Selection provides two key capabilities:

  • Aim to Select allows users to select one code at a time. This is especially useful for one-handed operation.
  • Tap to Select is a quick way for users to select several codes from the same view. Selection is done by tapping on highlighted barcodes in the live camera preview or on a frozen screen.
warning

Barcode Selection does not support handling of duplicate codes. If a code appears twice in the visible preview both instances will be marked as selected even if only one of them was selected.
