Most Barcode scanners included in Android and iOS can't read them though. I know at least for Data Matrix, only a few scanners can handle them.

I hate that the OG barcode scanner doesn't work on my pixel anymore.

Another useful Google app killed.

I use Binary Eye now, no ads, free and open source. It is built on zxing. I was a bit pissed when zxing scanner stopped working a few years ago. All the alternatives where ad infested crap back then.

Thanks for the recommendation! Yeah I can't stand the ad infested barcode readers now. I've actually considered buying a dedicated Bluetooth barcode reader.
