## What is Wave N Save?

Scan a barcode to find the cheapest price online from Amazon, eBay, and Google Shopping all at once. This is the most convenient comparison shopping tool in the App Store.

Who doesn't love the feeling of finding what your looking for at a better price. Wave N Save is a tool that makes it insanely easy to find the best price online for any product with a UPC. Scan products in your house or at the store and see what the price is on Amazon, eBay, and Google Shopping.

App Features:
- Lighting quick scans
- Reads any UPC or EAN Barcode
- Amazon, eBay, and Google Shopping are searched immediately upon scanning a barcode
- No need to leave the app to look at the search results from Amazon, eBay, or Google Shopping
- Toggle between Amazon, eBay, and Google Shopping search results on the same page
- In the settings select which search shows up initially upon scanning (Amazon, eBay, or Google Shopping)
- Preview product name and image at top of search page
- Saves your searches automatically with picture and product name
- Browse your history and redo your search from previously scanned items
- Fast and easy zoom up to 3X to more easily focus on small barcodes
- Conveniently placed zoom slider for easier one handed scans (Try pinching to zoom while holding a product your trying to scan at the same time. It doesn't work. The zoom slider located by the thumb is way better :)
- Use the flash/torch to light up the barcode
- Adjust flash/torch brightness to reduce glare (Most scanning apps turn the flash/torch on at full brightness creating a glare that makes it impossible to scan the barcode)
