+1 I use those two apps to transfer data between devices. :)
Yeah, however, due to lack of response, I do not think this will happen. I've found another very good barcode scanner for Android (on F-Droid and other stores), however: https://github.com/dmitriy-ilchenko/QrAndBarcodeScanner/issues/60
Sorry for the lack of response - I was quite a bit overwhelmed by your request to be honest 😬 Which is my fault, of course. I just didn't know what to make of it.
But it's good to see you found an alternative 👍 The app looks very good and it may even be a better fit because its UI is way more intuitive than mine is.
Well, no problem. It would just have been a small integration, nothing more. :blush: Anyway, your app has server me well for many years! And I still have it installed, because I cannot decide sometimes…
But yeah, the other app is very good as well… :shrug:

Yours is also very intuitive or at least easy and minimalistic, but yeah the other one is also very good UI-wise. :smiley:
I am the dev of a Firefox add-on for generating QR codes and I really like your QR code scanner/generator, because:
Now what?
So, however, when generating and scanning a QR code, you always need two parts: the reader and scanner. On two devices.
I mostly consider this use case: transmit some (potentially private) data from your desktop to your phone.
That's why I'd want to ask, whether we could maybe some kind of "cooperation" to suggest that we can link to each other's app/recommend it, as both things have quite common goals, IMHO. (more on that below)
What to do?
The exact details can be discussed, but I have a system to show a "random tip" to the add-on user in rare circumstances (non-annoying!). There I already have other tips included, but may also add a recommendation for your app.
Why?
Because, IMHO, the users of our software(s) will only benefit.
That said (potential problems):
Also, I am indeed calling for an unobtrusive way and not for big banners or so.
I am deliberately requesting this in an issue tracker publicly here, to discuss this transparently, because this is as FLOSS projects should do it. That's my opinion, at least. :smiley:
Let me know what you think. :smiley:
