8.5.0-beta.1​

Released: June 18, 2026

New Features​

Barcode​

  • Added the SelectionMode API to replace the SparkScan target-mode APIs and ScanIntention.smartSelection: Set selectionMode (off/on/auto) in the BarcodeCaptureSettings and SparkScanSettings to control whether an aimed-at barcode is scanned automatically or requires explicit selection.

Id​

  • Added Irish Garda Age Card as RegionSpecificSubtype.IrelandAgeCard.
  • Added double-sided support for the Oman residence card.
  • Added single-sided support for extraction of issue date and birth date from the 2025 NYC Municipal ID.

Smart Label Capture​

  • Extended VIN label capture to also scan Code 128 barcodes (in addition to QR, Code 39, and Data Matrix) via createVinLabelDefinition().
  • Extended LabelCapture to accept label definitions where both "barcode" and "text" field types use the "semantics" feature simultaneously; previously this was restricted to only one field type at a time.

Performance Improvements​

Barcode​

  • Enhanced detection of low-resolution QR codes is now enabled by default, improving scan rates for challenging QR codes with degraded print quality or unfavorable capture conditions.
  • Improved scanning of micro-QR codes affected by quiet zone violations and perspective distortion.

Smart Label Capture​

  • Improved Receipt Scanning efficiency by optimizing receipt image processing before extraction.

Behavioral Changes​

Barcode​

  • Reduced Code 128 minimum symbol count from 6 to 4; short codes (4 & 5 symbols) use stricter matching rules than longer codes. To explicitly exclude short codes, disable symbol counts 4 & 5 via sc_symbology_settings_set_active_symbol_counts() for Code 128. Note that if you previously enabled short code scanning, more strict settings are now in effect to reduce the chance of false positives, which are more likely for very short codes.
  • Tightened Code 39 false positive filter thresholds by default; to restore the previous behavior, enable the relaxed extension on Code 39 via sc_symbology_settings_set_extension_enabled(). This is only advised when external validation measures are available, e.g. scanning against a known list of valid codes or when codes contain structured data.
  • Updated SymbologyDescription.forIdentifier to return null for unrecognized identifiers (e.g. "EAN-8" instead of "ean8"); previously such input was silently mapped to Codabar.

Bug Fixes​

Barcode​

  • Fixed BarcodeAR not displaying an overlay for every scanned barcode when duplicate barcode values are present.
  • Fixed a memory leak in item-based scanning.
  • Fixed an issue in BarcodeCount where the strap mode setting would not be saved in all cases.
  • Fixed PDF417 macro block file ID decoding to correctly handle numeric formatting according to the ISO/IEC 15438:2015 specification.

Id​

  • Fixed an issue where cropped document images were rotated when Frame Image was also enabled.
  • Added support for Business Travel Permit to Hong Kong/Macau SAR (AKCHN prefix).
  • Corrected the orientation of cropped Visa document images that were being rotated incorrectly when scanned using a single-frame image source.
  • Fixed parser handling of non-standard Surrey BC AAMVA barcodes that were incorrectly returning "Invalid Format".

Smart Label Capture​

  • Fixed a memory leak in LabelCapture.

Core​

  • Fixed React Native projects using the New Architecture (NewArch) on iOS that required a custom post_install snippet in the Podfile to build; the Swift-to-Objective-C bridging header search paths are now set correctly in the SDK podspecs.
  • Fixed a rare crash when starting camera capture while under memory pressure.
  • Fixed a rare crash when opening the camera.
  • Fixed a crash when the DataCaptureContext singleton was initialized more than once.

Deprecations​

Barcode​

  • The SparkScan target-mode APIs and ScanIntention.smartSelection are deprecated in favour of selectionMode.

8.4.1​

Released: June 23, 2026

Bug Fixes​

Barcode​

  • Fixed BarcodeAR not displaying an overlay for every scanned barcode when duplicate barcode values are present.
  • Fixed a memory leak in SparkScan when using the item-based API.

8.4.0​

Released: May 18, 2026

New Features​

Barcode​

  • Added dotRadius property to BarcodeBatchBasicOverlay to allow customizing the size of dots when using the Dot overlay style.
  • Added custom view support for barcode pick highlighting in JavaScript frameworks.
  • Added support for PDF417 in the Barcode Generator.

Id​

  • Added support for reading the vehicle table on the back of New Zealand driving licences, with the latest expiry date returned; supported vehicle classes are 1–6, including L=learner and R=restricted variants.

Core​

  • Redesigned ZoomSwitchControl to support multiple configurable zoom levels; the control now displays as a compact button that expands to show all available zoom levels, automatically filtered to those supported by the device hardware.
  • Added a new PinchToZoom gesture.

Performance Improvements​

Barcode​

  • Improved Code 128 scan robustness for codes with uneven blur and geometric distortions. Available on all platforms except WebAssembly without SIMD and ARM without FP16.
  • Improved 1D barcode scanning speed and reduced false positives for linear symbologies.
  • Further improved scanning of square DataMatrix codes with damaged or occluded timing patterns.

Behavioral Changes​

Barcode​

  • Smart Scan Intention now continuously adapts between Single Scan and Selection modes during a scanning session when Smart Scan Selection is enabled, switching back to Single Scan when the scene no longer requires Selection mode. Previously, once Selection mode was activated it remained active for the rest of the session.
  • Changed ITF scanning to reduce false positives by introducing checksum-dependent scoring. ITF has an optional checksum which is mandated to be enabled by many of the standards that use ITF as the data carrier. Starting with this release, checksum-passing ITF codes are scanned with more relaxed conditions than codes that don't pass the checksum test. This happens even if the optional mod 10 checksum isn't enabled. To disable this behavior, enable the no_checksum_dependent_validation symbology extension for the ITF symbology.
  • Removed the Abseil library dependency.
  • Reduced Code 39 false positives.

Core​

  • Updated mbedtls from version 3.6.5 to 3.6.6.

  • Fixed an unnecessary second scan callback that occurs after freezing barcode recognition.
  • Fixed PDF417 macro block file ID decoding to correctly handle numeric formatting according to the ISO/IEC 15438:2015 specification.
  • Fixed a crash that could occur when scanning barcodes with the k-out-of-n filter enabled, if some detected barcodes were not subject to filtering.
  • Fixed an issue where the Smart Scan Selection aimer would become too small when scan-area margins restricted the visible scan area; the aimer is now sized relative to the view, keeping a consistent on-screen size regardless of margins.
  • Fixed an issue in BarcodeCount where the strap mode setting would not be saved in all cases.

Id​

  • Fixed an issue where the US Permanent Residence Card was not processed through the VizMrz flow.
  • Fixed an issue where AAMVA verification was being performed even when no AAMVA document types were enabled in the accepted documents.

8.1.0​

Released: December 17, 2025

New Features​

Barcode​

  • Smart Scan Selection is now available in Barcode Capture. Scanning a single barcode is often difficult in environments where multiple barcodes are placed closely together, like on a densely packed warehouse shelf or on a package with various labels. This can lead to scanning the wrong item, causing errors and slowing down operations. Smart Scan Selection solves this problem by automatically detecting when a user is trying to scan in a "dense barcode" environment. The interface then intelligently adapts, providing an aimer to help the user precisely select the desired barcode without needing to manually change any settings. This creates a seamless and more intuitive scanning experience.
  • SparkScan is not limited to only barcodes anymore, but can also scan items - in other words any combinations of barcodes and text present on a target to be scanned. The feature is available in beta at the moment, please contact Scandit Support if you are interested in trying it out.
  • Extended Aztec codes reader to support scanning mirrored codes.
  • Added support for square DataMatrix codes with one-sided damage or occlusion. This feature is only enabled in Barcode Capture and SparkScan.

8.0.0​

Released: November 4, 2025

New Features​

Scandit's SDK 8.0 marks the evolution of data capture from a high-performing scanning tool into an intelligent AI-powered workflow enabler. As frontline operations face mounting pressures with more data points to capture, increasingly complex workflows to navigate, and tighter resource constraints, SDK 8.0 delivers a set of innovations that:

  • Adapt its scanning settings and UI to context by analyzing the scanning environment and user intent;
  • Automate the capture of any data format, barcode clustering, task handling or camera settings;
  • Accelerate critical use cases to maximize ROI through intuitive, streamlined scanning workflows, using interactive AR-guidance, adaptive UI and out-of-the-box custom-branded passenger experiences.

With SDK 8.0 businesses can transform data capture from a basic function to a strategic advantage. It enables intelligent scanning that:

  • Understands not just what is being scanned, but also what you want to scan and why you’re scanning it
  • Adapts accordingly by adjusting scanning settings and/or UI, understanding what comes next and how to guide users seamlessly through sophisticated tasks to ensure the highest level of productivity.

Core​

  • Upgraded all sample applications to React Native 0.81.4 and enabled the new architecture.

Barcode​

  • All sample applications have been updated to more closely align with React Native best practices.
  • BarcodeBatchBasicOverlay and BarcodeBatchBasicOverlayListener now allow for nullable brushes.
  • MatrixScan AR now allows for the use of custom highlights and annotations.
  • Updated the Gradle version for all sample applications to 8.14.3.

Smart Label Capture​

  • We’re introducing an enhancement that makes Smart Label Capture more robust and scalable by complementing its on-device model with a larger, more capable model. When the on-device model can’t capture certain labels, the SDK automatically escalates to this enhancement to handle complex or unforeseen cases with high accuracy and reliability. This capability is currently available in beta. If you’re interested in trying it, please contact Scandit Support. For configuration details, see labelDefinition.adaptiveRecognitionEngine.

ID​

  • Added ElementsToRetain to MobileDocumentScanner: The set of data elements that the application intends to retain from scanned mobile documents. This information is used to set the IntentToRetain flag in ISO 18013-5 mdoc requests, which is required for legal compliance with data protection standards. An empty set indicates no elements will be retained, and IntentToRetain will be set to false for all fields.
  • ID Capture now supports full-frame anonymization.
  • The result of decodeMobileDriverLicenseViz, which is currently returned as part of the VizResult within CapturedId, will now be provided through a new field named mobileDocumentOcr.
  • Added CapturedId::isCitizenPassport, which indicates whether the passport was issued to a citizen of the issuing country. Returns false for travel documents such as refugee, stateless, or alien passports, and for any passports issued by organizations rather than states.
  • The following Chinese travel permits now extract VIZ + MIZ data during double-sided scanning flows:
    • CT - Taiwan Residents Mainland Travel Permit
    • W - Mainland Residents Exit-Entry Permit to and from Hong Kong and Macao
    • CD - Mainland Residents Entry-Exit Permit to and from Taiwan
