Hi,
just had the pleasure, needed to add a visual back button because the we put our android devices in protection cases for museums :wink:

For android:
If you just want to change the layout you can find the capture.xml in your android platform directory under res->layout

if you have to add functionality I think there is no other solution than to do it in native, are you iOS or android or both?

  1. you have to open the qr scanner library project that comes with the plugin (for me it was with eclipse)
  2. do the modifications,
  3. export the library and replace it in your ionic android project

for someone who hasn’t done any java in 2 years it was quite the experience :wink:

Hope this helps.
