Barcode recognition is performed using the Firebase SDK on Android and iOS, and using ZXing on Win10, and as such the recognition accuracy can be different in the different platforms.

On Android, if the recognition engine is not installed on the device, the device may require internet connection to download the engine. This is done using Google Play services, so it is required that the device as Google Play services enabled. The first times you make a Barcode request, if the engine is not yet downloaded you will get an error.

• For Android and iOS: Codabar, Code 39, Code 93, Code 128, EAN-8, EAN-13, ITF, UPC-A, UPC-E, Aztec, Data Matrix, PDF417, QR Code.
