Why won't my barcode scan properly?

If your barcode won't scan, try these solutions: ensure good lighting and steady hands when using the camera, make sure the barcode is clearly visible and not damaged, blurry, or scratched, try different angles or distances, clean your camera lens, or upload a high-quality image instead of using the camera. Very small, low-resolution, or damaged barcodes may be difficult to scan.
