Would love to be able to pack orders while verifying through the mobile app on handheld devices instead of needing to use a physical scanner with the desktop version. Thank you!

I completely agree! With our warehouse it would be a lot easier to take our scanner phones and verify the items when they are picked instead of taking them all back to the shipping station and hoping you got all of the correct items. It would also be a lot easier than using the "Desktop Site" function in Chrome as having it optimized for mobile would make it a lot easier to navigate. 


We ++ this! The barcode scanning function in ShipStation Mobile is not a functional need for us without the Scan to Verify piece of it. ShipStation, can you update on if this is heard, and if it is being considered?

 

Thank you.

This is such an obvious and immensely useful feature to add to the mobile app!


This is a must.  It should be part of the mobile integration for sure! I don't know many warehouse people tugging a computer around behind them. 

 


Yes! I feel like this would be an easy fix for them to make. They don't even have to add it into the app (although I'm sure lots of people would appreciate it) Just make SS website mobile friendly!! Please!!

Absolutely need to incorporate scan to verify for mobile, it would be very useful. Also have a way to set a printer default so you don’t have to reselect the printer every time you print postage.

This will be an absolute game changer for us! This needs to be a priority!!!


  • December 2, 2022

I know this would be huge for us as well. Is there any plan on adding this in future updates?


  • February 20, 2023

Really surprised those that built this app didn't make this a requirement.  It just makes sense and surprised it hasn't been added.

Would love to see this integrated to be able to use a Zebra or Munbyn Mobile computer to facilitate filling orders


Please Shipstation!


This would be perfect! Is there any advance on this yet??

We purchased an iPad for the purpose of using Scan to Verify, very surprised that this feature isn't in the mobile version, who carries around a PC in the warehouse?  

Please add this!

@CaraAdmin Please provide an ETA for this project.

Shipstation is Great but Awful at reacting to the community request.

Example - Bundle products - I asked in 2021 to get this and it took 3 years to have this feature.

Hello @Näak!

 

Thank you for asking about this feature request! I’ve connected with our research and development team, and they’re currently exploring what this feature could look like and how our merchants would like it to function. As a heads-up, someone from the development team may reach out to gather more insights. We appreciate your input!

 

Happy Shipping!

Hi @CaraAdmin 

Any update on this?

Has anyone tried opening shipstation on a browser and trying the scan verify there using a blue tooth scanner?

Cheers

Hello @Shaun!

 

Exciting news! We’re building a brand-new mobile picking experience that includes scan-to-verify, batch picking, and pick-to-tote workflows. It’s all about helping you pick faster, reduce errors, and get real-time visibility into your fulfillment process. 

 

If you want to try it out early, we’d love to have you in our beta! Just email us at warehouse@shipstation.com.

 

We appreciate all your patience and feedback! 

 

Happy Testing!
