While I totally agree that Voice Dream Scanner is a fantastic app and definitely worth the money, Seeing AI currently does more things, like the barcode reader. I have definitely noticed a change for the worse in Seeing AI over the past month or so. I have tried deleting and reinstalling the app, rebooting my phone, resetting network settings, etc. if Voice Dream Scanner could do barcode, currency etc. recognition like Seeing AI, it would be wonderful, but for now, these apps serve different sets of purposes.
