Scanning barecode on demand

Hello,

I have created an applet, with an action where the user can scan barcode/qrcode of items.

 

I have a requirement, to scan only when the user presses a button, because the end user is scanning in a place where there is a lot of qr code and the camera of the phone scans the first qr code it sees. For the end user the sensibility is too high.

Do you know a way to display the content of the barcode only when the user presses a button ?

I would imagine that the user presses the button to take the picture as a trigger to start analyzing the barcode

Or I would like to use the out of box button to stop the camera at the right top of the screen and then analyze the barcode in the picture

 

I didn't find anything in the documentation, does anyone know if it's possible to make it work ?

Hi - for this you don't find any document. I would suggest creating a "Scan now" button and on top of this button, a trigger is started to analyze the barcode. OOB feature is not so friendly as per your requirement ( that's my thoughts)

How can I create a new button on the qr code scanner ?
