Simply scan the quadratic barcode and iRobin does the rest for you:
✔ auto-open links to websites in safari mobile;
✔ auto-open eMail addresses in the mail-app;
✔ auto-call phone numbers*;
✔ adding VCards (.vcf files) or MeCards to the address book app;
✔ auto-open geo coordinates the maps app;
✔ auto-open calendar events.

Full iPhone 4 support:
✔ Multitasking (for all compatible iOS 4 devices);
✔ use the torch for lighten up while scanning;
✔ full HD artwork;

Scanned barcodes can be saved into the iRobin barcode list and (re)called later (Ideal for reading newspaper while traveling by airplane: Simply scan barcodes of interest while reading the paper onboard and continue detail reading online after arrival). Or send them as eMail attachment to any eMail address you want.

Using iTunes, you are also able to get scanned barcdes in a text or XML file.

The scan area can be cropped to enhance scanning results even if several QR-Codes are placed directly together.

▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁
IMPORTANT NOTES:
iRobin needs the autofocus capabilities of the iPhone 3GS or 4 and works very limited on the iPod touch 4G. The scanning results on this device can be improved by using an optionally available optical lens (macro lens).

* For security reasons phone calls are only executed after user confirmation of the shown decoded phone number.
