I'm developing android application for qr code scanner , I tried both Google android barcode API and zxing , but still confused which is better to use , and I have to develope one more application to generate barcode , is there any other library than zxing for generations of Qr code. One app will generate qr code and other app will scan it. Is it beter if I use zxing for both app.

I would personally use ZXing library for both tasks, I recently was able to successfully implement a simple Qr-Code scanning and generating app quite easily.

Let me know if you need any help with the implementation.
