If you have the number, you can use the Digit-Eyes UPC database without
charge -- you can also develop your own app or website that uses it. More

If the app is showing the code on the screen, you can just have voiceover speak
it, and then tap three fingers four times to copy it to the pasteboard. You can
then paste that into the edit box on the website. This does require iOS seven
