Crash While Scanning

[BabyOilJohnson]

Describe the bug
The app stops working when you try to use the barcode feature. It stops when the product data is being retrieved (the loading circle appears).
This happens about 5 out of 10 times.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to Edit item
2. Click on Barcode Scanner icon
3. Scan the code
4. Loading circle appears
5. Before the product data appears
6. Turn-off the internet (make sure the app showns no internet connection)
7. Then, turn on the internet (loading circle appears)
8. See error

Expected behavior
The app should be able to scan and retrieve data without crashing.

I confirm the presence of this bug.
More specifically, the app appears to crash when the same product is scanned twice.

Thank you for reporting this bug. I will try to fix it as soon as possible.
It would be very helpful if you could provide some screenshots or a video to help me better understand what happened.
I hope you'll still be able to use the feature in the meantime.

I have no video, but I did another test.

I was wrong: it's not when the same product is scanned twice, but when there are internet connection issues.

In fact, I tried scanning a product with both WiFi and data turned off, and the app crashed immediately.

I'm on Android 11.

I have found out what caused the crash. When it first happened, I thought it was related to scanning, but after some test, I found out that it happens when the internet connection is unstable.
I have also updated the steps to reproduce the problem.

Some apps repeatedly scan and thencrash. Definitely not products already scanned. I thought it was because of the barcode sizes but I get it on bigger barcodes too.

It's very likely due to a bad internet connection.
Try scanning a barcode with WiFi and data turned off, it should crash every time.

Still a bug, but at least we know how to reproduce it.

Definitely not the case. WiFi 6e with fiberoptic. Scanned 60 other products without issue. Repeatedly crashes on the same barcode at different times.

The app just freaks out repratedly trying to scan multiple times a second then the app just crashes.
