Card Panda

What?

Card Panda is a small, fast, simple app waith just one purpose: Store barcodes or QR codes on loyalty cards, so that they can be shown again whenever you need to scan them. It won't hold you up in the line at the checkout, won't bombard you with ads, and won't nag at you with popups every time you launch it!

The barcode scanning is done by iOS itself and quite flexible, so you can store QR codes, the more dense cards you find on boarding passes and so-on; you're not limited to '2D' (horizontal) bar codes.

Why?

Applications I used to use got bought out or discontinued. Over time they became slow and overloaded with features I didn't want. All I needed was to show the barcode from a previously saved card, so it could be scanned - so that's all Card Panda does.

Help!
