FORT WORTH, TX -- TTI, Inc. global distributor of interconnect, passive, electromechanical and discrete components has released an update to its Apple application.
TTI’s Apple app now includes functionality that allows customers to scan part number barcodes. With one click, this feature automatically performs a quick and easy part search by utilizing your phone or tablet’s camera. Barcodes representing TTI part numbers, manufacturer part numbers and even keywords are all recognizable by the new scanner. In addition, customers who are registered for TTI’s ezBuy Web Service can use the app to scan customer part number barcodes.
Kevin Schubert, Vice President of Global Internet Business states, “With the proliferation of personal mobile devices and a more mobile based workplace, TTI’s goal is to make it easy and convenient for customers to use their mobile devices to get pricing and availability, purchase parts, or simply look up product datasheets anytime, anywhere. Enhancements like this are part of TTI’s progressive mobile strategy and demonstrate our commitment to providing best in class functionality across all platforms.”
The barcode scanning feature is available now on the TTI App in the iOS App Store. This update to TTI’s award winning suite of mobile applications follows the acclaimed launch of similar functionality on TTI’s Android application just weeks ago.

Peter Drucker famously said "Trying to predict the future is like trying to drive down a country road at night with no lights while looking out the back window." Yet in the razor's-edge world of electronics—with a lean supply chain and just-in-time demands—the need to know the future is vital.
