OVERVIEW
- Scan both linear and 2D DataMatrix barcodes.
- Quickly share VIN through email or SMS.
- Copy a VIN to other online services to check the Blue Book price, CARFAX history, etc.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:
“Just wanted to say thanks for the wonderful VIN Barcode Scanner. I’m a Lieutenant Firefighter/Paramedic here, and … one of our multitude of tasks is information gathering at these incidents… Your app makes my job a few minutes easier at every accident we attend. I’ve tried a few of the other vin scanners out there, but none work as well or as reliably as yours.”
— Lt. Mike McIver, City of Red Deer Emergency Services
AUTOMATIC SCAN
Position your smartphone camera over the VIN barcode so the barcode fills most of the screen.
When the app has been able to resolve the image of the barcode, the app will scan the barcode and make a Record for that vehicle, including the Make and Year if possible.
There is no button to push to activate the VIN scanner. Make sure you are trying to scan a VIN barcode and not the alpha numeric vehicle identification. See list of supported barcodes.

COPY OR SHARE THE VIN
From the Success screen, you can Copy or Share the VIN you’ve just scanned.
