# Components

This suggestion will affect **compose barcode** fragment.

# Proposal Description

Recently, this project received a feature request, to provide a button that opens the correct application, depending on the content of the code read.

> Examples :
> - if the code contains URL → the button can open the web browser
> - if the code starts with mailto: → the button can open the mail client
> - if the code is a vCard BEGIN: VCARD → the button can open the contact app ***Suggested by Nico207***


***What about when creating a QrCode? Does [BinaryEye](https://github.com/markusfisch/BinaryEye) understand the content of QrCode that should be created? So as to aid readability by the right application after scanning the QrCode?***

No, there is no option to select the content of QrCode to be created. This is where my proposal comes in.

While using BinaryEye, I created a QrCode via **compose Barcode** option with my first device to hold a phone number, then I scanned the code with BinaryEye on my second device, which successfully scanned but didn't open any application to read the digits. 

It's a different case when I created a phone number QR-code from another application, then scanned it with BinaryEye. BinaryEye successfully pushed the phone number to a phone dialer, which didn't happen when I created it with BinaryEye.

It'd be nice if there are options to select the type of code to be created. I believe with this, the phone number will be recognized as digits.  

For example;
Let's assume I need to create a QR-code of a Contact (digits), website (links) or a PDF file (documents). Let there be a dropdown showing the different types of Qrcode to be created.


# Mockups / Examples

 **Create Content Type Section**

It'd be awesome to see the **content type** section in-between **barcode format** and text entry section.

* **Make it a drop-down list**

Making it a drop-down format will help to manage interface by not consuming a lot of space.

# Benefits

After this suggestion is implemented, users won't stress themselves copying digits to phone dialer. Instead, it's recognized as a digit which then opens the appropriate app to handle it.
