8.1.0
Released: December 17, 2025
New Features
Barcode
- Extended Aztec codes reader to support scanning mirrored codes.
- Added support for square DataMatrix codes with one-sided damage or occlusion. This feature is only enabled in Barcode Capture and SparkScan.
Performance Improvements
Barcode
- Improved MicroQR detector tolerance to quiet zone violations
- Improved suppression of incorrect Codabar recognitions when using the “strict" symbology extension
Behavioral Changes
Barcode
- Enabling the “ocr_fallback" symbology extension with missing OCR model resources now triggers the context error 28 (“Missing Resource”)
Bug Fixes
Barcode
- Fixed a rare out-of-bound memory access crash when scanning low-resolution or blurry
EAN13/UPCAcodes at a specific distance - Fixed a bug in the default color of BarcodeCapture highlights
- Fixed an issue where popover annotations with HIGHLIGHT_TAP_AND_BARCODE_SCAN trigger could not be opened again
- Fixed an issue in BarcodeSequence where camera would not be ON in portrait
- Fixed an issue where SparkScan mini preview would sometimes stay in regular when entering target mode
- Fixed the app becoming unresponsive after being in the background for extended periods
- Added the
cameraStateOnStopproperty to BarcodeFindView to optimize camera transitions when switching between modes
Core
- Fixed a bug that could in rare cases produce a black screen when starting the camera
- Fixed a small memory leak that affected fresh install runs only
- Fixed an issue where barcode scanning would permanently stop after the app returned from background, particularly when camera permission dialogs were shown during initialization
8.0.0
Released: November 4, 2025
New Features
Scandit's SDK 8.0 marks the evolution of data capture from a high-performing scanning tool into an intelligent AI-powered workflow enabler. As frontline operations face mounting pressures with more data points to capture, increasingly complex workflows to navigate, and tighter resource constraints, SDK 8.0 delivers a set of innovations that:
- Adapt its scanning settings and UI to context by analyzing the scanning environment and user intent;
- Automate the capture of any data format, barcode clustering, task handling or camera settings;
- Accelerate critical use cases to maximize ROI through intuitive, streamlined scanning workflows, using interactive AR-guidance, adaptive UI and out-of-the-box custom-branded passenger experiences.
With SDK 8.0 businesses can transform data capture from a basic function to a strategic advantage. It enables intelligent scanning that:
- Understands not just what is being scanned, but also what you want to scan and why you’re scanning it
- Adapts accordingly by adjusting scanning settings and/or UI, understanding what comes next and how to guide users seamlessly through sophisticated tasks to ensure the highest level of productivity.
