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.

objects. It's from the same developers as TapTapSee and it's free. I forgot

Hi Andrew,
Eileen's suggestion to first use Camfind is a very good one. With Camfind
you just take a picture of the package without having to worry about finding
the barcode and more often than not it will come back with the correct
information as to what you have.
