> Scanning 2D barcodes only works reliable on smartphones

We wont even fully certify iPhones for use with this solution because we have seen consistent failure to autofocus on the barcode for "some weird reason". iPads work like magic though. I have to go out of my way to not get a quick scan on recent generation iPad camera.

We went down the hardware scanning path w/ keyboard emulation in the browser, but its kind of clunky when you are considering the overall solution stack in a B2B setting.

We've also not had the best luck with keyboard emulation scanners, but unless you want to add a native wrapper, there aren't a ton of good options.

Oh how come?
