Re: Recommendations for barcode reader app
Hi, Try camfind. You don’t need to search for the barcode on items, just snap a picture and it will tell you what it is.

Re: Recommendations for barcode reader app
I find the best results to be with Red Laser. For smaller items that are round, like cans or yogurt containers, I simply rotate the item in front of the camera, perhaps six inches away. After one or two circuits, I move the item up or down to scan a new area and rotate again. I usually find codes on these items within a minute, often far less. Boxes are harder, but eventually you'll get to know where the codes are on things you use a lot. For instance, I now know on which side the code is on the pasta boxes we use. Other than that, it's a matter of scanning at the right height and waiting to find the code. Also, in Red Laser, don't forget to enable the light (top right corner) for much, much better results.

Thanks, Eileen, these are very helpful tips. I've been through the tips on DigitEyes website but I'm still pretty bad at finding the codes. After 5 or 10 minutes of trying, one is seething.

Re: Recommendations for barcode reader app
CamFind is another app that one can use for identifying and recognizing objects. It's from the same developers as TapTapSee and it's free. I forgot about LookTel Recognizer being used as a barcode reader/scanner. I do have Digit-Eyes and probably use this app more frequently when scanning and organizing paperwork. I like the ability to create my own lables. To answer your other question, on the Digit-Eyes website (www.digit-eyes.com), there is a specific link to give one hints on finding the barcodes more efficiently. Once in a while, I'll get stumped and will need to use another app instead of Digit-Eyes or even take out my old ID Mate Omni, but that's in a rare occasion. Using transparent Scotch tape (when out and about) and having a a sighted person place it over the barcode will help one find it later on. I always look for a seam on a package or can and start just left of the seam or the bottom of a package like rice, but I'm systematic in my search. For a box, I'll locate the top where one would go to open it and then turn the box upside down and usually start on the bottom left.

Re: Recommendations for barcode reader app
Red Laser works very well, and is free. Digit-Eyes works less well, but can recognize more codes and lets you print out your own labels (from their website) for scanning later to identify non-coded items. They also offer clothing labels for identifying clothes or other items you may need to wash. If all you're after is QR and bar code scanning, though, Red Laser should work just fine. Just be sure to enable the light from within the app before you start scanning.
