CLUSTER CODES-SCANS-BARCODES-2 · 12 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-07-07
QR code scanner and generator apps
This cluster comprises utility apps that scan QR codes and barcodes and generate new codes, with some offering artistic customization and folder organization. Dated entries appear sporadically as single entries across months from September 2016 to June 2026, showing no clear trend. All traction leaders (Kodaskanna, Barcoder, QR Codes Generator & Scanner) show zero activity stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
