What this app will do for me ?

It will scan barcodes (read "other info" for list of formats supported) and send scanned codes by email, or save them for later use, or paste/copy codes into other apps, or search on the web.
It will not check for prices.
Also, with iTunes file sharing, you can export the list of scanned codes (and photo taken) to your PC (for use in Excel etc.)

How does this app works ?
--------------
To start the scan, tap on the "START SCAN FROM" buttons (or shake te device), and the camera will start, ready to scan a code.
Now make the camera look at a barcode.
Please make sure your camera is correctly aligned with the barcode to scan (vertical or horizontal, not oblique).
Please make sure that the code is well lighted and on focus (move the device to get well the code).
When the barcode is detected, it will be surrounded by a green square and it will be decoded and written in the "SCANNED CODES" list.
If you have problems to get the code scanned, when the camera is on, tap the info button to get help on how get a successful scan.
With your codes scanned, you can save them for later use, or mail them, of search for them on the web, or paste into other apps (last scanned code is copied into the pasteboard), or copy them (and photo taken) to your PC for use in your apps with iTunes file sharing. Tap on "ACTIONS WITH SCANNED BARCODES" to select what you want to do with the scanned codes.
You can also save the photos taken in your Camera Roll.
ONLY FOR USERS THAT DID DISABLE THE ADS TAPPING ON "REMOVE ADS" BUTTON:
Now you can use this app to scan barcodes with your web apps.
If you have a web app that you need to input barcodes, you can start the app, scan barcode, and return barcode content, with just one http url !
Just use an url like this:
bar-code://scan?callback=[callback url]
(where "callback" is the url return url to your web app)
Barcode content will be added at the end:
?barcode=[barcode content][&other parameters]
So, for example, using this url:
bar-code://scan?callback=http://www.mysite.com
the callback url after barcode scan will be
http://www.mysite.com?barcode=1234567890
if you need extra parameters, just add them to the callback url
bar-code://scan?callback=http://www.mysite.com&user=roberto
then the callback url after barcode scan will be
http://www.mysite.com?barcode=1234567890&user=roberto
You can test the app is working with this url:

THIS WILL WORK ONLY FROM THE DEVICE WEB BROWSER !
