Launch DateJanuary 1, 2009

ScanLife consists of a mobile app and a web based code management platform. The app works on all operating systems to convert a camera phone into a barcode scanner. It will automatically launch content like a website, videos, price comparison information and more. It can read all standard code formats like QR, Datamatrix, EZcode, and UPC codes from products. It has been preloaded by operators like Sprint, Telefonica, and Orange.

The code management platform allows businesses and personal users to create and manage their 2D codes. Business users can also track their codes to see number of scans, users, location, and other data.
