+# This plugin is no longer maintained
+
+I no longer have time to maintain this plugin. In addition, other libraries have come along that I consider a better replacement, most notably the [MLKit based barcode detection plugin](https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_camera_ml_vision). 
+
+If someone is interested in taking over this plugin and maintaining it please contact me and I will transfer ownership.
