I use this feature often. The biggest struggle is locating the barcode on the item. Once located though, SeeingAI reads it nearly every time.
Something I’m not clear about is the additional information from the barcode. Sometimes there are cooking directions, sometimes a bit of nutrition, other times it feels like an add for the product. My favorite is when cooking directions come up. A tip for myFitnessPal users, find the barcode with SeeingAI first, then scan it with MyFitnessPal. The beeps from SeeingAI are helpful.
