Connect a Zebra Scanner to Android

You can pair a Zebra scanner to an Android phone or tablet for faster scanning.

Step 1: Factory reset the scanner (only if it was used before).  If the scanner was previously set up for another app or device, scan Set Factory Defaults below. If it’s brand new, skip this step.
