App Description
Scan and create every common 1D and 2D barcode - one at a time or continuously in Batch Scan. Export your history as CSV or automatically send scans to your own server. Unlike an ordinary scanner, Code Scan also verifies the cryptographic seals on official documents.
WHAT IT READS
• QR, MicroQR and rMQR (rectangular MicroQR)
• DataMatrix, including DMRE
• Aztec, PDF417, MaxiCode
• EAN-8, EAN-13, UPC-A, UPC-E
• Code 39, Code 93, Code 128, Codabar, ITF / ITF-14
• GS1 DataBar and DataBar Expanded
• VDS, VDS-NC and IDB document seals
Codes are decoded on your device: from the live camera, from a photo in your library, or from an image you share into the app from somewhere else.
DIGITAL SEALS ON OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS
This is what sets Code Scan apart: it does not just read the seal, it checks the cryptographic signature.
• VDS (Visible Digital Seal, BSI TR-03137) in DataMatrix
• VDS-NC (ICAO) and IDB (ICAO Datastructure for Barcode) in QR codes
• Signatures verified against X.509 certificates, kept up to date automatically
• Import your own X.509 certificates for closed ecosystems
• MRZ data contained in a seal is parsed and shown in readable form
This app supports reading and verification of (among others) VDS Profiles:
- Social Insurance Card
- Residence Permit Document
- ICAO Visa Document
- ICAO Emergency Travel Document
- German Arrival Attestation Document
- Address Sticker for German Identity Card
- Place of Residence Sticker for German Passports
VDS-NC Profiles:
- ICAO PoT and PoV (ISO/IEC JTC1 SC17 WG3/TF5)
CREATE YOUR OWN CODES

FASTER IN EVERYDAY USE
• Camera light in four brightness steps and 1x / 2x / 4x zoom - for tiny print, dark rooms and laminated documents
• Share a screenshot from any app to read the code inside it, or share a link to turn it into a code
• Batch Scan: capture multiple codes without a result screen and save them straight to your history
• Siri and Shortcuts: create a code or open the scanner by voice, or build both actions into your own shortcuts
