Today we released the latest update for Optiscan, our QR Code scanner and generator, on the iTunes App Store.
You’ve always been able to create a plethora of QR Code content types with Optiscan, but now we’ve made it even easier for you with a new menu of options. These include:
- SMS Create a QR Code containing a message and the phone number to SMS it to – great for marketing!
- Location To our knowledge Optiscan is the only QR Code generator app that lets you pinpoint a map location without having to type the address in!
- Email Similar to the SMS option, setup an email message, subject line and recipients all in one QR Code
- Telephone Keep it simple – your phone number in a QR Code
- Wi-Fi Need to share your wi-fi details easily? Put them in a QR Code and pass it round!
All these options have been added at the request of our users in addition to our standard Contact (with vCard or MeCard options), URL and Text note options. We hope you enjoy using Optiscan even more now to scan and create all those QR Codes!
Coming to an iPhone near you soon: Optiscan 2.0: The Scanner Strikes Back!
Sorry I was late in approving your comment. Didn’t get notification for some reason. That said, at the time I wrote the article, it was the current version. When I have time, I plan to write an updated article. Thanks!
Thanks Sean :)
We’re looking at adding these options in the future, but keep your eye out for the next update!
One of the best QR apps available!
2 Suggestions:
Update to be enhanced for full-screen iPad HD usage
Add ZOOM feature with camera API to resize for resizing QRs into field of view (I have not seen this feature on a single QR implementation)
Keep up the great work, & thanks!!
