1-97. (canceled)
A method implemented by data processing apparatus, the method comprising:
- receiving an image from a user device, the image depicting a form identifier;
- identifying the form identifier depicted in the image;
- obtaining, from a form registry, an electronic form that is identified by the form identifier;
- identifying one or more form fields of the electronic form, each form field having a corresponding data type specifying a type of data for inclusion in the form field;
- obtaining, for each of the one or more form fields, field data associated with the user device from a database, the field data being of a same data type as the form field;
- populating the electronic form with the field data obtained for each of the one or more form fields;
- and
- providing the populated electronic form to the user device.

A system comprising:
- one or more data processing apparatus;
- and
- a data storage device storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more data processing apparatus, cause the data processing apparatus to perform operations comprising:
- receiving an image from a user device, the image depicting a form identifier;
- identifying the form identifier depicted in the image;
- obtaining, from a form registry, an electronic form that is identified by the form identifier;
- identifying one or more form fields of the electronic form, each form field having a corresponding data type specifying a type of data for inclusion in the form field;
- obtaining, for each of the one or more form fields, field data associated with the user device from a database, the field data being of a same data type as the form field;
- populating the electronic form with the field data obtained for each of the one or more form fields;
- and
- providing the populated electronic form to the user device.

A computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more data processing apparatus, cause the data processing apparatus to perform operations comprising:
- receiving an image from a user device, the image depicting a form identifier;
- identifying the form identifier depicted in the image;
- obtaining, from a form registry, an electronic form that is identified by the form identifier;
- identifying one or more form fields of the electronic form, each form field having a corresponding data type specifying a type of data for inclusion in the form field;
- obtaining, for each of the one or more form fields, field data associated with the user device from a database, the field data being of a same data type as the form field;
- populating the electronic form with the field data obtained for each of the one or more form fields;
- and
- providing the populated electronic form to the user device.
