Hi @achinverma, thanks for the inquiry. The library currently doesn't support front-facing cameras. On top of that I don't think ZBar SDK supports front-facing cameras. But I do remember reading ZXing SDK has added support for front-facing cameras.

Though I do own a Nexus 7 myself, I am inclined towards thinking that this is a corner-case. Sorry about that. But if this becomes important for a lot of people in the future then we can revisit. Thanks for understanding.
