ZXingObjC is a full Objective-C port of the ZXing barcode image processing library, supporting encoding and decoding of many 1D and 2D barcode formats. It works on both iOS and macOS applications.

Use cases

  • scan qr codes in an ios app
  • generate barcode images from strings
  • decode upc codes from camera images
  • read data matrix codes on mac
  • add barcode scanning to an objective-c app
  • encode pdf417 barcodes

When to choose

  • you need barcode scanning or generation in an iOS or macOS app written in Objective-C or Swift
  • you need support for many barcode formats including QR, EAN, Code 128, and Aztec
  • you want a mature port with feature parity to ZXing 3.3.3

When to avoid

  • you are building for Android, Windows, or Linux
  • you prefer a Swift-native or modern camera-based scanning API like AVFoundation's built-in barcode detection
  • you need formats beyond those ZXing supports
