poor item info on first scan after install

[Aaron Myers]

The very first thing I scanned was a brick of extra sharp cheddar, by CABOT.
The program's first solution to the upc code : 078354703328 "Smith Corona typewriter"

Not even close.

Think I will go to my old standby... This app has poor substitutions in product lookups.

This app has no product info at all actually. It is just sending you to info from Google product search, and Amazon.

Google *web search* has it...

But Google product search doesn't...

Amazon doesn't... or has this number by coincidence in something to do with a typewriter:

You know it's cheese because you're holding it, so you'd know it was a bogus hit from Amazon. I'd tell Amazon, if anyone.

The right answer is 'no results' -- stuff like cheese isn't usually sold online, in comparison to DVDs and books.

You should think of this app as just a scanner for QR codes and the like with a bit of info on the side for convenience. Use Shopper or something else for purpose-built comparison shopping.
