Used to be a good app, but no longer
This used to be the best barcode scanning app for blind people, but not anymore. I cannot get any barcodes to scan at all with this app now. Has the developer abandoned this project? If so, I really think this app should be taken out of the App Store, As there are much better alternatives out there now which are continuing to be developed and supported.

Péssimo
Não acredito que paguei por este aplicativo.
Muito ruim. Não encontra nada.

Fraud!! Apple is supporting them. Can’t find anything!
Apple is supporting this fraud and thief app.
No refund after using it for 5mins which was enough to see that this is nothing more that the Camera’s built in barcode reader.
If you want to pay 10 bucks for nothing this is the perfect app for you!
Shame on Apple and developer that there is no refund / or trial for this prior buying.

Digit Eyes is great!
Really works great!! thanks for taking time to develop Digit Eyes.
Lost for words
The app in general is very good, though it does struggle with Aldi barcodes.
Practice and Patience Will Pay Off
The first thing I will say concerning the Digit-Eyes app is this; if you are a person easily frustrated and/or unwilling to put effort into challenges, I strongly recommend you avoid this app.
The above comment is not intended to diss digitize it anyway. It’s just that it will take some time and practice to get fairly successful with digitize. I personally find it to be an extremely helpful option because I live alone and I got, frankly, tired of accidentally adding sauerkraut to my chili when I think I’m adding tomatoes. In short, I find digit-eyes an extremely useful and usable app!

Totally useless
I don’t often write reviews, but this app was so disappointing, I felt compelled to. In 15 minutes of trying to scan multiple items, even with sighted assistance, I was only able to scan one item using the app. And, that item wasn’t even in the database. Even when the camera was pointed directly at the barcode, the scanner did not pick it up. Please save your money, and buy an overpriced coffee at Starbucks.

Reality it is useless
Want my money back all honestly, thought it'd be helpful for keeping track of shopping and creating a list of art supplies. It didn't recognise a lot of the food it was scanning and just wasted my time and money. Would not recommend- I believe the free version let on more than what it really was.
This app is totally awesome… Not worth $10 but worth $10,000
I also find it very useful to identify spices… I pondered for weeks and had to label my spices and realized that they already have a barcode on them and I just scanned them and know what is what… Totally awesome… if you have trouble printing labels to years… Just spend a couple dollars and buy some from Digit-Eyes… It isn't worth the prostration I am always very hesitant to spend money on apps… I reluctantly bought this airport $10 and as I say… It's worth $10,000 to me… there is a slight learning curve to learn how to find and scan the barcode… But in a day or two… I am old pro… If you have questions… They are there to answer the telephone… That is a big plus there is some prostration with learning to find the barcodes… But be patient… Work with it… And… As I say… It is worth it's weight in gold… another thing that is pretty cool about the app is when it recognizes the barcode you hit the more information link and in many instances it gives you nutritional data for that particular product… also… Some products will give you cooking instructions also no more six or seven open cans in the fridge that were mistakenly identified last week and never use because I open the sauerkraut when I was looking for the kidney beans… LOL

Terrible customer support
Customer some more support is terrible! Been trying a month to get technical support to help with the printer time out problem. Both phone call attempts and email attempts failed to get a response. Do not recommend relying on this apps technical support for any assistance. Less than one star.
Great App
I like this app, but except for one thing. I would also like to have the prices read along with the item. How are you suppose to know what the price if you're blind/visually impaired? Doing a web search will take to much time, and you won't be able to find someone all the time in the store. What do you do then???!

A great app
This app if you know and have patients how to learn how to focus your camera and look for the barcode is very good. It can be difficult to use but not because of the app, more because of my not knowing where the barcode is. I appreciate the beeping to let me know that I am close to the barcode.
Poor return on investment
Way too expensive for what it does. You can't see the barcode you just scanned. You can't export easily. Not recommended as is.
App is basic
Once the barcode is found, the app will give you the name of the item. It does not search any product databases to give detailed information. I am not sure why it claims to be the best. I have already found three average products it does not recognize. Also, if you are looking for cooking instructions this app will not suffice.

Best of the barcode scanners
While their are several barcode scanners available, this one is the simplest to use without sighted assistence. Right away it recognizes a lot of the things in the average kitchen. Figuring out where exactly the barcode is on items to scan them in the first place is the hardest part but does get easier with practice/experience. The more advanced functions of the app are optional, but it only gets more and more useful the more you dive in. Definetly read the website's tips to get all the use out of it.

Tolle App
Die Barcodes auf allen gängigen Produkten werden zuverlässig erkannt und für die meisten existiert auch ein Datenbankeintrag mit den zugehörigen Informationen.
Ein wirklich tolles Hilfsmittel!

Okay, not that bad…
It helps to turn objects on their side, and scanned from above. It still takes some time for some objects that are larger, but it does work. Certain things are found relatively easily, and it Recognized most of the things that I threw at it. Somethings have directions for use, other things do not. I would say that overall then, this is a quick, or relatively so, way to at least figure out what you're holding.

The instructions on the website really helped me learn how to use this app to its full potential
I've had this app for about 2years now, and it's still useful. Hands down this app has helped me so much and is a great tool for finding products in my kitchen.
Horrible app - hard time recognizing barcodes
Bought this app for my visually impaired mom. When it works, it works great. But most of the time even with a perfect image of bar code, the app can't see it. Seems to like boxes better than cans. Only worked about 10% of the time. Please note I am not complaining about local brand bar codes needing to be added. If that is all it was this would be a great app. But it just doesn't "see" the barcode to begin with. App should been free or at least no more than $3.

Waste of $19
This app works with the built-in device voice over. There are many free QR code scanners and creators that will do the same thing. Very disappointing I paid for this. I thought it had something more for the price. Run - don't walk - from this app.
