What’s New Version 25.8
Barc 25.8 focuses on the experience of adding barcodes by typing them in manually.
### Barcode Preview
The manual entry form shows you what your barcode will look like before you save it like the other barcode entry methods. You can use this to make sure that your barcode works the way you expect before saving it.
### Remembering Barcode Formats
Barc remembers the last format you entered when adding new barcodes; no more having to pick the format over and over again when adding a bunch of barcodes in a row.
### Halloween Custom Icon
The new "Barc-O-Lantern" app icon is here just in time for spooky season! It's available for all Barc Unleashed subscribers.
Description
Barc organizes and smartly fetches important barcodes. They’re all over the place. Concert tickets. Reward cards. Gym memberships. Library cards. Weird payment systems. Barc keeps them all in one place, and helps you find them right when you need them.
Everything in its place.
Many barcodes you need to use regularly don’t already have a nice place on your phone to keep it. Barc can save barcodes from anywhere, whether it’s another app, a website, an e-mail, or even just a piece of plastic.
Finders keepers.
Hoarding every barcode in your life doesn’t help if you can’t easily find the one you need. With Barc, you can tag barcodes with relevant locations and dates, and Barc will highlight them when the time is right.
Saving made simple.
Most apps for tracking barcodes require the company that gave you the barcode to already have an app. Barc thinks you should be able to add any barcode you come across. Scan physical barcodes with your camera. Save images from websites or e-mails. If all else fails, Barc even allows you to add barcodes just by taking a screenshot. Barc supports QR codes, UPC, and EAN-13 barcodes. More formats are always being added!
Always close at hand.
Barc is built to integrate closely with the iPhone ecosystem. Add barcodes to your home screen for quick and easy access based on your current Focus. Build custom workflows in Shortcuts to make barcodes available from Siri or the Action Button. Sync your barcodes across devices with iCloud. Use Barc on Apple Watch to have your barcodes handy, even when you don’t have your phone.
Your barcodes. Not ours.
Barc keeps your private data private. Your barcodes are kept on your device and in iCloud; we don’t see them (and we don’t want to). We don’t share any of your personal information or shopping habits with third parties. See Barc’s full privacy policy at https://getbarc.app/privacy/ for more information.
Unleash Barc’s full potential.
Download Barc today and get started in seconds. Barc allows you to save up to 3 barcodes for free. If you need more, try Barc Unleashed with a free 2-week trial to save unlimited barcodes.
Barc is provided under a standard EULA. Learn more at https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Build 878000531v25.72025-09-15 11:50:27
Barc 25.7 adds support for the latest system updates. There's also a few small goodies:
- Rendering barcodes has been improved to fill more space in widgets, especially for PDF 417 codes.
- All app icons, both the default and alternates, have seen a bit of a touch-up.
Build 876525087v25.62025-07-21 19:03:17
Barc 25.6 has a number of small bug fixes:
- Code 128 barcodes which have only numbers in them can now display a more-compact format, which may help in scanning them.
- Large PDF 417 barcodes render completely instead of potentially not appearing.
- Adding a new barcode after deleting an existing one works correctly, instead of showing a "need to subscribe" alert.
Build 875711161v25.52025-06-19 06:07:22
Barc 25.5 fixes an issue where tapping the "scan" button opened the "enter manually" page instead. Whoops!
Build 875585611v25.42025-06-17 05:09:26
Barc 25.4 has all kinds of new stuff!
Custom App Icons
Barc Unleashed subscribers can choose from a set of custom app icons to customize their home screen. This first release of app icons adds Pride Flag, Coffee Shop, and QR Code designs.
Shortcuts Enhancements
The "create barcode" Shortcuts action has a preference for handling barcodes that were already added to Barc. When detecting a duplicate, Barc can either show an error (the default) or return the original barcode.
A new "delete barcode" action allows you to remove barcodes when you no longer need them.
Expanded Watch Complications
Barcodes can be added as "corner" complications on watch faces that support them, in addition to the previously-supported "circle" complications.
New Barcode Format
Store barcodes in the "Interleaved 2 of 5" (ITF) format, often used for product or item IDs.
Improved Accessibility
Delete barcodes quickly from the main barcode list using actions with VoiceOver or Switch Control.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a miscolored icon when deleting a barcode from the barcode list.
- Adding a barcode from inside Barc is much faster when on a slow connection.
- The barcode list correctly refreshes when a new barcode is added.
Build 875191716v25.32025-05-30 19:45:33
Barc 25.3 makes a few nice improvements:
Improved Accessibility
- Barcodes with dates and locations have more-helpful descriptions in VoiceOver.
- The "photo library" toolbar button added in Barc 25.2 is labeled correctly in VoiceOver and Voice Control.
Brighter Bright Mode
The single-barcode view has a new button to set your screen to beyond maximum brightness, making barcodes easier to scan.
Easier Imports
Share image attachments from web content such as Mail or Safari into Barc to scan them for barcodes.
Build 874885951v25.22025-05-20 23:17:39
Barc 25.2 adds a new way to import barcodes and fixes several Apple Watch bugs.
### Photo Library Import
Barc can now import images from your photo library and scan them for barcodes, directly within the app. No more opening the Photos app just to add a barcode to Barc!
### Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where the Apple Watch complications released in Barc 25.1 never showed up. I apologize strongly for this issue; fixing it took significantly longer than it should have.
- Stopped a common issue on Apple Watch where it would change the currently selected barcode occasionally.
- Further tweaked the dark mode app icon.
Build 872070742v25.12025-01-28 20:39:24
Barc 25.1 adds some new features for Apple Watch users.
Watch Face Complications
Place your most-used barcodes on your watch face for quick access.
Wrist Rotation
You can twist your wrist to show a barcode to someone else or to a scanner facing you. The watch stays on and automatically flips the code over.
Bug Fixes
- Editing a barcode‘s name, location, or date is immediately reflected in the library instead of requiring an app relaunch.
- The dark mode icon added in Barc 25.0 uses the system gradient background instead of a flat black background.
Build 871959727v25.02025-01-23 20:34:34
Barc 25.0 makes using Barc for the first time (or first time in a while) much simpler.
Empty Library Additions
When you have no barcodes stored, Barc gives you more information about how to get started. No more staring at an empty screen wondering what to do next.
Introduction Tour Progress
In the introduction tour, Barc now shows how many pages you have left, and you can now travel backward and forward throughout the tour as you like.
What's New Badge
When new versions of Barc come out, a small badge will show up to help you learn about the latest features.
New Dark Mode Icon
Barc's app icon now looks much nicer when using the dark or tinted app icons on your home screen.
Shortcuts Fix
The Shortcuts app now shows each of your barcodes only once in the app list, rather than duplicated across two sections.
Thanks for using Barc! If you're reading these release notes, I'd sure appreciate a rating or review on the App Store. :)
Build 871237482v24.92024-12-28 13:06:26
Barc 24.9 is mostly just setting up for some fun experiences in the New Year! There's a few small visible improvements, though:
- Scanned PDF417 barcodes may be more compact than previously, depending on the original barcode.
- The introduction tour has been greatly simplified.
Have a happy New Year, and I'll see you with more new features and updates in 2025!
Build 871164197v24.82024-12-16 17:01:06
Barc 24.8 adds support for PDF417 barcodes, used by many store loyalty programs and U.S. state driver's licenses.
This release also fixes a bug with Shortcuts, where some "programmer-ese" was shown instead of proper text.
Barc's help menu now also links to two new ways to contact the developer: via Bluesky and Facebook! If you have any questions, comments, or feature requests, please reach out via any of the methods provided.
Yes, Chris, I did mean to release this version.
Build 870755355v24.72024-11-29 20:50:55
Barc 24.7 polishes up some of the changes introduced in Barc 24.6.
Barc 24.6 introduced a bug with the home screen widget that causes it to draw barcodes shortened and off-center. Barc 24.7 restores the full-width display of barcodes.
Barc 24.6 introduced a bunch of new actions in Shortcuts, but if something went wrong, it wasn't always easy to figure out what happened. Barc 24.7 improves the error messages that are displayed if your Shortcut fails to run.
Build 870223957v24.62024-11-14 07:19:03
Barc 24.6 adds a bunch of new ways to quickly find a specific code when you need it.
Automatic Siri Integration
You can ask Siri to open any barcode in Barc as soon as it's added; no additional setup required. Say "Open (your barcode name) in Barc" to show that barcode's page in Barc.
Search Bar
A search bar at the top of the barcodes list helps you filter the list to find just the barcode you need.
Spotlight Integration
Search for your barcodes in Spotlight to open them in Barc.
New Shortcuts Actions
Several new actions were added to Shortcuts to help you build your own workflows:
- Create a new barcode with a given value.
- Create a barcode by scanning a photo or screenshot.
- Get the value of a barcode.
- Get the list of all your barcodes.
- Add a relevant location or date to a barcode.
Build 869963311v24.52024-10-25 05:48:32
Barc 24.5 contains a few urgent bug fixes:
- Saving to Apple Wallet works correctly with all barcode formats.
- Apple Watch sync is fixed. For users who used earlier versions of Barc, please see https://getbarc.app/apple-watch-reset for some steps that may be necessary.
Thank you for your support and patience!
Build 869904086v24.42024-10-24 16:49:37
Barc 24.4 adds the ability to save barcodes to Apple Wallet and fixes a few small bugs.
Apple Wallet Integration
You can add barcodes from Barc to Apple Wallet. Barcodes added to Apple Wallet also include the locations and dates you've added to them in Barc, causing them to appear in your notifications when they're needed.
Improved Barcode Widget
The Barc home screen widget opens to the specific barcode you've selected, rather than opening to the full barcodes list.
Improved Barc Unleashed Design
The design of the Barc Unleased purchase page has been improved. Some people aren't ready to make a yearly commitment, and the new design makes easier to find the option to subscribe for a single month instead.
Barcode Rendering Bugs
- Code 39 barcodes with the "$", "/", "+", or "%" characters now generate correctly.
- Code 128 barcodes have a corrected check digit, making them scan properly on devices that checked it.
If you have these codes saved, there is no need to re-enter or re-scan them; Barc will properly display the ones you've already added.
Misc. Bug Fixes
- Sending a support email properly closes the email view when done.
- The search bar when adding a location is fully presented when a location is already selected, instead of appearing squished.
- The images created by a Barc shortcut have the correct background when requested.
Build 869343664v24.32024-09-28 19:55:24
Version 24.3 of Barc is just squashing a few more launch bugs:
- Fixed a common crash on iPhone that happened when checking your location for relevant barcodes.
- Fixed a crash that could occur immediately after opening the app on Apple Watch.
- Added additional fixes around an issue that could cause the app to act like you hadn't purchased or started a trial of Barc Unleashed when using the share sheet import.
Build 869258710v24.22024-09-25 21:26:50
This release of Barc includes the following updates:
Increased barcode support
Barc now has support for for the Codabar, Code 39, and Code 128 barcode types, which covers the vast majority of reported barcode issues.
Fix “Unexpected error” message
When trying to add barcodes using the share sheet that use an unsupported format, Barc will now display an error explaining the situation instead of a generic “unexpected error” message.
Improve Apple Watch syncing
Several people have reported that getting barcodes synced to the Apple Watch app wasn’t working for them. This update will improve and speed up the syncing between your phone and your watch.
Barcode view brightness
Barc will now increase the brightness of the screen when viewing single barcodes, to make them easier to scan.
Prevent unnamed barcodes
Barcodes with no names were the cause of some subtle bugs. This update will prevent them from existing in the first place, and add a name to any that exist already.
Build 869083236v24.12024-09-18 08:09:36
- Fixes a issue that caused sharing an image into Barc to crash.
Thanks for the bug report, Dad!
