Camera first
Use the browser camera on phones, tablets, laptops, or supported rugged devices when scanning is convenient.
Scan in the Browser. No App Needed.
Browser software on any device with a browser - camera, USB or Bluetooth wedge scanner, or manual entry from one page.
Why use web scanning
Start quickly
Open the page, allow camera access, and scan.
Use existing devices
Use phones, Android handheld terminals, enterprise mobile computers, tablets, or wedge-scanner workstations - same URL on every device.
One screen for input
Camera scans, scanner input, and manual entry run through the same workflow.
Local by default
Workflows stay in your browser. Scan data goes only where your workflow sends it.
Phones, handheld terminals, enterprise mobile computers, and wedge stations
Scan2Flow is browser software - open the same URL on BYOD phones, Android handheld terminals, enterprise mobile computers, warehouse PCs with USB or Bluetooth wedge scanners, or rugged industrial Android in Chrome. Use the camera, external scanner mode, or manual entry.
Dedicated scanners are overkill for many capture-and-send workflows. Pilot on legacy fleets in the browser before a native app rollout, or stay browser-based on devices you already own. Rugged OEM terminals still fit harsh sites and extreme scan volume.
Installable PWA
Add Scan2Flow to your home screen on phones and handhelds for a full-screen scan station - no app store required.
Damaged labels and fallback input
Real-world labels are not always clean. They can be scratched, folded, poorly lit, or partly covered. Scan2Flow gives operators more than one way to enter the same workflow value.
Scanner input when speed matters
Use USB or Bluetooth scanner input at desks, counters, receiving stations, and other high-volume workflows.
Manual entry when labels fail
Type the code into the same workflow when a barcode is damaged, missing, blocked, or impossible to scan.
