CimBar Scanner 코드 스캔 앱 대상 Android 설명
CimBar Scanner sends and receives files and text as CimBar barcodes — animated images in which every frame is a grid of colored tile shapes. Point one phones camera at another phones screen, or at a computer running the web app, and the file arrives with no network at all. Encoding and decoding happen entirely on your device: no account, no server, no internet connection.
How it works
- Encode a file or a text message into a CimBar barcode: in the apps Send tab, or with the free web app at https://nfcarchiver.com/cimbar/, which runs entirely in your browser.
- Show the barcode full screen, or send it as an animated GIF.
- Receive it with CimBar Scanner: live-scan an animated barcode with the camera, take a photo of a single-frame one, or import the GIF.
- Open, save or share the recovered file, or copy a received text.
Features
- Send tab: type a message or pick a file, add an optional passphrase, then show the barcode full screen — the screen stays on and bright, and repair frames keep coming for as long as it is shown — or share it as an animated GIF
- Received text messages appear right in the app, ready to copy, share or save as .txt
- Live scan with focus and exposure lock, an aiming guide, and hints such as move closer or hold still
- Frames can be caught in any order: extra repair frames mean any N frames of an N-frame barcode complete the file, so there is no waiting for the one frame you missed
- In-app photo or gallery image for single-frame barcodes
- Import CimBar GIFs from your files, or share one to the app from any other app, such as your gallery; a shared photo of a single-frame barcode goes straight to the photo decoder
- Reed-Solomon error correction in every frame
- Automatic decompression of files that were compressed on encoding
- Optional AES-256-GCM encryption, detected automatically; if a live scan turns out to be encrypted, enter the passphrase right there — no rescan
- Decoded files: open them in another app, save them to Downloads or any folder, or share them
- 5 languages: English, Russian, Ukrainian, Turkish, Georgian
Privacy
No data collection, no analytics, no trackers, no ads. The only permission the app requests is the camera, used for scanning; no internet access.
Open source
CimBar Scanner is a successor to libcimbar and CFC by sz3 (https://github.com/sz3/libcimbar), the original Color Icon Matrix Barcode projects. It uses its own, newer format, so it does not read barcodes made by libcimbar or CFC.
