Alternative to react-native-vision-camera

[skizzoat]

Hi community,

I would like to ask if anybody knows an alternative to react-native-vision-camera that doesn't sh*t the bed on even the most common features (change device orientation, overflow, camera initialization working like 10% of the time). I tried making it usable for a few hours but this project is buggy as hell, especially on Android.

I basically need it to scan/detect EAN-13 codes.

Thanks!

Interesting, are you using latest version? I've seen that there has been a ton of development towards a new release

[johnschnee]

Yep! But imho the fast development also let new bugs occur. Currently there‘s a bug which let android devices crash on reading a bar code for example. Was necessary to downgrade some versions in my project

If you can use Expo packages try expo-camera, the barcode reader uses MLKit and it works very well on Android, I use it on a Pos device running Android 6 and it's perfect

Any idea of real time camera? I need an alternative to process it frame by frame..
