We currently have HTML-based apps for iOS and Android, using a wrapper. We'd very much like have native apps for speed and access to more advanced features. If you're an iOS, Android, Blackberry or Windows Phone developper, we'd very much welcome you :-)

[[Mobile App/Roadmap]]
The application is mainly dedicated to the collection of products: barcode scanning , sending photos, input basic informations.
 
 
 
The application is developed in HTML and JavaScript and is based on the PhoneGap platform (also known as Cordova). It is packaged for Android and iOS with the Moodstock scanner. On other platforms (Windows Phone…) it needs the BarcodeScanner PhoneGap plugin instead.

== Native Apps==
 
 
 
A native application would allow a more fluid use. PhoneGap app is actually running in a webview, a kind of Web browser, and is suddenly relatively slow and sometimes unstable.

=== Application for people who have difficulty reading ===
 
* For people who are blind, have difficulty reading when it says very little that can not read.
