Just wondering: Since you're using zxing library, why not go for the zxing barcode scanner directly? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.zxi... Another option would be to use Google's MLKit. I think they've added support for scanning QR codes in there. It requires Google Play Services though, which is not ideal. |

The zxing library is open source and different from the app. So looks like something fishy happened to the app recently. From the description of problems, this might even be the app referred to in the article.
