In Norway several grocery stores have in the last half year started using the 2D barcodes. And I suddenly experienced yesterday that I couldn’t scan and add a micowave meal I bought since it doesn’t have a EAN barcode at all on the box.
I hope the app will get the possibility to scan these 2D codes or a lot of meat and other products in Norway won’t be possible to add to OFF in the future 🫣
