SM Keyboard

SM Keyboard is designed to address the specific challenge users face when their Socket Mobile scanner is connected to a tablet-based POS application in Application mode. When users want to add inventory in a web browser, they have to re-connect their tablet and scanner in basic Keyboard mode.

SM Keyboard eliminates this difficulty by providing a custom keyboard for your iOS, Android or Windows device when in Application mode. As a result, users can enjoy rapid, reliable barcode scanning in any application without the annoyance of switching between modes.

SM Keyboard is included with Companion for Windows.

Stock Count

Stock Count is designed to help users easily leverage the high speed scanning capabilities of Socket Mobile barcode scanners. Intended for routine stock/ inventory counting tasks, Stock Count allows users to speedily scan multiple SKUs in "rapid fire" fashion while their barcode scanner or RFID reader is connected to an iOS or Android device in Application mode.

The scanned data is written into an editable text file where quantity information is automatically added to each scan. Users can share this file (.txt format) and import it into most inventory management systems.
