I've had my best luck with the free Barcode Scanner app. I've also used Scanlife with success (also free). _________________ Garmin 1695 / 255 / 760 w/MSN - Droid w/Google nav + Navigon - Navigon 8100T - Dakota10 - GPSMap76C - GeoMate Jr. |

Barcode Scanner by ZXing Team is the one I use.
The only reason being that Android Forums gave it a good review. Works for me.
Scans codes on Rewards cards etc saves carrying them around.
I know there are lots out there, and funny enough I was reading the Technology section of one of the papers last week that gave 1 list of 10 top Apps or something similar.
They showed another Barcode scanner that did a lot more, like search surrounding shops etc for best price. Something like that anyway.
I can't remember what it was called now.
Staying with what I know until something happens and I need to change.
