### 5/5 — EXACTLY What I Was Looking For

*2013-07-31*

This app is exactly what I was looking for.
1) Scan a barcode
2) Use it to open a custom URL
PERIOD!

It makes me mad why nobody had done it before.  I almost bought a mac to program it myself.

Most other apps scan the barcodes but don't allow you to make our own URL.

This app is not perfect, but HEY it is the only one out there doing the job!

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!!!

I hope it keeps getting better and simpler!
