Anybody have success with the products channel with scanning bar codes?
I can hear the beeping sound to indicate I’m near a bar code, but it never
seems to find it.
Of course, perhaps the bar code is not in its database?

Hello Tim,if you switch on airplane mode you are unable to use the channel
document mode. There is no problem using the short text mode. I believe it is
important not to scan sensitive documents.

Yes,have tried it and the OCR seems pretty good.
Dave, from what you say, is it true that OCR is being done in the cloud rather
than on the phone?

Hi all,
You might be interested to know that Microsoft’s Seeing AI app is now available
here in Ireland.
The app does live text recognition with the camera, OCR on documents, barcode
recognition, and image recognition. It seems pretty powerful for a free app,
though of course I’m sure you’re paying with your data instead of cash.
I’ve only had a quick look so far but it looks pretty good. I successfully read
the packaging on a Marks & Spencer’s meal with the live text recognition for
example :)
