Hi Jiml,
exactly this is the problem, there is just iOS.

Its strange that there must have been an android version of mergZXing in 2013 (see in the forum here) which is at no place to find.

And, up to this, I find it really annoying that Monte shows an reaction when asking for this and the only answer you get from LC (sorry Heather) is "please wait".

But that's the world, and LC stays to be my preferred development environment.

A solution is this:
  • create a website with a PHP page
  • POST the image to the PHP page
  • the PHP page put the image in URL like "http://www.myserver.com/myImage.jpg"
  • then use this code:

    Code: Select all

    put URL ("http://api.qrserver.com/v1/read-qr-code/?fileurl=" & urlencode("http://www.myserver.com/myImage.jpg") )

Well done MaxV - a nice 'lateral thinking' solution to the problem!
