How to Share Barcode Scan Results

Share scanned barcode and QR code results by copying them or sending a file. It keeps long numbers accurate when you pass them on.

Reading a long number aloud or copying it onto a note is where mistakes creep in. Passing the scan result along directly avoids mistyped digits.

Tap a result in the list to copy it, then paste it into an email or chat.
