Does anyone know if the barcode scanner can scan price/weight embedded barcodes? Like the ones from a deli scale?

I believe @Manan_Mehta has built some apps with barcode scanner. Wonder if he has some insights here.

Haven’t had experience with these.  
One thing to note is that the inbuilt barcode scanner is experimental. For a relaible barcode scanner, you will have to upgrade.

As @Manan_Mehta said, the built in barcode scanner is not intended for production use, you could look at [Dynamsoft Barcode Reader SDK online store](https://www.dynamsoft.com/store/dynamsoft-barcode-reader/) for a reliable solution, there you get a 2 month test license and the Glide support helps you to connect it to your app
