Experiment #3 - Nearby Items

Thank you, Doodler_Benji!

Are you scanning this from 1Password? I wonder if you might benefit from a similar ability to our recent updates to have a QR for Wi-Fi, but in your case, displaying a membership QR/Barcode, or even image if its a unique barcode graphic.

I’m intrigued! Where do I read more about or access this feature? A quick search didn’t make it appear.

What I’m doing is taking a picture of the back of the card, which has the barcode, and attached that photo as an attached file. Then at the checkout machine I can pull up the item in 1Password, open the attachment image, zoom in to make the barcode big, and hold it up to the scanner.

The same goes for the gym membership, and I’ve done this with a supermarket loyalty card also though at most supermarkets you can type in your phone number so it’s not needed there as often.

A feature to make the barcode more explicitly stored - and easy to bring up when in the relevant location - as opposed to having a picture would be neat. They are all just regular barcodes (the kind with the vertical lines, not a QR) as far as I can tell, so I guess they ought to be able to be stored as a number and then rendered as bars, though I can’t say if building that logic is a worthwhile thing or not.
