I wrote a QR Code generator that mixes multiple character encodings using ECI designators to achieve the most efficient encodings possible, and I've been testing by scanning its codes with this app. I have to say, I have not been able to confuse this app, even with extreme examples of mixed-encoding QR Codes. Cognex's scanner app fails, as apparently it tries to decode the whole string using only the last ECI designation, which is wrong. This app, however, gets it right every time. Kudos! A+!
★★★★★
The best and greatest barcode scanner ever made. It's so sad that it doesn't work with android 13 and above. I wish the developer could update it to work with the latest android.

Used this with a Samsung S9 and worked fine. I got a new Samsung S23, and it says it's not compatible with my device.
