Can we add a different barcode scanner? The included one is too slow and too unreliable (misreads, ignores ECC measures

We'd like to use the NEO Reader barcode scanner. It is incredibly fast and in a side-by-side comparison on the same hardware (iPad mini 2) the performance and reliability are both much improved.

It has an SDK ( http://www.neom.com/solutions/neoread... ) but I'm wondering if someone at Appery/Exadel could point us to ideas on how it might be implemented? Perhaps you might consider implementing it for the entire platform?

Thanks a bunch!

Hello Greg,

We'll pass your request to our developers out changing the current scanner to this one, but as far as I know we don't have such plans now. Unfortunately you may use another scanner only if you'll find the appropriate phonegap plugin.

What is necessary to make a phonegap plugin? Could Exadel do this under contract?

Hello!

As Evgene mentioned already there are no plans to do that in the nearest future.

If you need help with implementing plugin, you may consider purchasing Advisory Pack to get more in-depth help on this question or contact our Services team. Here is more information http://appery.io/services/.
