I am trying to build a Asset Manager. I am using a scanner or a mobile device to scan the barcode which is the asset id. My requirement is as follows:
1) When the scanner scans for the first time the data(purchase date, cost, assigned to , history) should be allowed to be entered and the data should be stored in the google spreadsheet.
2) When the product or the item is already present it should display me the result(purchase date, cost, assigned to , history).
It would be a great help if i get a clue on what could be done.
Thanks in advance.

Things you may consider:
What protocal to use to interface with the device. For example, I would recommend TWAIN for scanners.
What's your app type? Is it a web one that you can do scanning from browsers? Then you can choose the according scanning SDK for your project.
Store data to Google Spreadsheet. This post might help.

I actually hide all the WhatsApp images from Camera Roll. i just want to know where exactly these images are stored!
Sorry, This look like very simple one. But i need to know
PS:I am new to iPhone world
WhatsApp stores the downloaded media files inside the path:
Library/Media/CONTACT_WHATSAPP_ID/
CONTACT_WHATSAPP_ID:
if the contact is a person this id will be the contact mobile number followed by #s.whatsapp.net example: 970999999999#s.whatsapp.net
if the contact is a group this id will be the group creator mobile number followed by the epoch time stamp when this group was created followed by #g.us, example: 970999999999-1483006443#g.us
I hope this can help someone.
1.The images are stored on their server, that is how you can access when someone else posts an image.
2.The images that you have manually downloaded by clicking on a photo or autodownload is on, will be stored on your device locally be it the Iphone or android app
3. Use a file manager to find out location of Whatsapp image storage for your device. I doubt that it is same for all devices
On the iPhone (iOS 13):
Application Groups > net.whatsapp.WhatsApp.shared > Message > Media
I am using an online based inventory tracking system called Tracmor. I'm wondering if there's an app for Iphone or some feature that allows you to scan barcodes from your iphone keyboard. The way I am able to input data inventory data into tracmor is by selecting the field in the Tracmor online portal, which pulls up the iphone keyboard. Ideally, I would like to scan the bar code from this point for the field. I know this is possible for android, but I have not found the solution for iphone. I am currently using an Iphone6.
Thank you,

I am using BarcodeKey from the app store - it works like a keyboard. it seems to work well for our use - scanning barcode data into a web form/field.
My name is Noah and I am a support engineer with Tracmor.
I wanted to let you know that there is an iPhone app that will support scanning barcodes into Tracmor.
Please see the app called "Barcode Scan to Web" By Berry Wing LLC in the iTunes store for more information.
With this app you will be able to scan bar codes with the camera on your iPhone directly into the text fields in Tracmor for items such as asset tags, locations, and users.
I am developing iPhone app where I want to display how much data downloaded and uploaded from device. I didn't find any public APIs to do this. But I fount one app 'OpenSignal' which does the same thing. here is the link for OpenSignal app.
Any help how to detect how much data downloaded or uploaded from the device.
Any help?
This can be done using getifaddrs. You will need to iterate and search for the appropriate data. You're looking for a record where sa_family == AF_LINK and then you can check which interface it is part of and get the number of bytes. There are restrictions such as when this record gets wiped to zero. man page (google is also your friend for usage details).
I'm facing this problem while designing my iOS app. Suppose that a user purchases an app and downloads it to the iPhone. I would like to provide him with a default consumable item the first time he runs the app to use whenever he wants , however I would also like to track if the user has already consumed the item. This way if he decides to reinstall the app we can restore the transactions (if he used the item) or we can avoid possible intents to download different kind of content by reinstalling app and consuming default items each time. (Guess NSUserDefaults is not an option here).
One approach that came to my mind was using UDID(or any iOS 6 alternatives) to keep a record on server of the user's device the moment he uses the default item. But this will limit items just to the device from which they consumed content.
It would be great to support all the user's devices (like inAppPurchases), but I can't figure out a way to implement this.
Any suggestions or help would be great.
Thanks a lot.
In order to tie information to a user (not just a device she used at one time), you'll need to ask the user to identify herself and save it someplace other than the device. In other words, a backend that implements registration and login.
From scratch, this can be a lot of effort that an iOS developer didn't count on. Fortunately, there are several services in the world that provide a substantial head start. Here's a nice round-up. I've had direct experience only with Parse.com, and think it's excellent.
I am currently in development of an app that keeps track of physical inventory. I am wondering if there is some way that I could possibly use QR Codes or some kind of barcode to scan an item and then have the app recognize the item and pull up the info for the item quickly and efficiently. If anyone has a better or more ideas to solve this then please by all means pitch in I am trying to make a better/easier UI for the user.
You have some options here:
iPhone 3GS/4, iPod touch -> Linea Barcode Scanner(they have their own SDK) by Infinite Peripherals that has magnetic card reader as well. Apple uses these external Accessory for iPod touches in their stores, if you happen to go to Apple Store you can see these their associates carry them. Very reliable option. Costs about $300 ~ 500 a piece.(Nordstorm, Sears, Kmart use them as well).
Verifone sells similar accessory but they aren't as popular as Infinite Peripheral barcode scanners.
Or Reading QR/Barcode using camera is really simple and fast. You can either use ZXing,Zbar sdk to scan barcode and based upon successful scan you can lookup inventory if you have a webservice available. These are free SDK's. Zbar is really fast, I would recommend using Zbar. You have some paid barcode scanners using camera as well like RedLaser.
To manage inventory have your webservices ready, you need to pull information like description, price about item and display in tableview cell. Better UI depends on your requirements and what kind of data you want to show. What you want to do with inventory. So many questions before I can jump to conclusion that this UI looks better.
You can look at shopsavvy api that pulls up item information based on barcode from their database. Paid service though.
