I like it quite a lot as well. It is great for identifying groceries. You do sometimes have to move whatever you are looking at, of course, if you are not pointed at the right section of a box or jar, but this is equally true for having to take pictures. It is very quick and no picture-taking is required, so having to fiddle around with an item takes less time than having to take a decent picture of the information you need identified.
