Also share your contacts, apps, and bookmarks via QR Code. This is why contacts permissions are needed. See FAQ below.

Awesome app. Occasional wrong prices but no big deal. Please add easy access camera light on/off switch in barcode scanning view.

Pretty sweet. Not that practical... always have to try hard to find excuses to use. Should have an Amazon search/compare option after scanning

Works great on my G2 and easily can scan business cards with QR barcodes. But for scanning products I recommend Google Shopper. No support for flash.
