i just used Seeing AI to recognize 5 different boxes of tea this morning. The trick is to start a good 12 inches away from the can and move slowly toward the can. The bar code is usually near the seam of the label on the lower half of the can. HTH, Richard

No luck. I turned the can every which way, but whereas before I could get some sort of a bleep from the app, last night I got a whole lot of nothin'. Yes, I'm aware this could be a matter of the user being a little ... slow. I tried using short text, and while more successful, the mixed results were more annoying than helpful and still didn't really tell me what I wanted to know. So, has anyone found a good bar code reader app? I looked at Digit Eyes on the app store, but it seemed outdated based on the history of the reviews. Other than Be My Eyes or AIRA, are there any other worthwhile contenders? Thanks for any help. Joe -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
