Whoa – this is a VERY cool application. The features look sweet – I will make sure that this is the first app I have on my EVO.

When you barcode scan something it makes this super loud beep. Nothing like attracting attention (Alarm) like your trying to steal something. Settings had nothing to disable this.

  Wait… I found it when you in bar code scan/camera mode (Search for a product >) there is a icon in the bottom right to beep/vibrate/disable setting. They should really just add this to settings as well as a standard to find the “setting” for the sound. I like the icon for quick access but I only want to set it once and never look back. Changed setting to vibrate and rebooted phone. The setting saved perfectly. No issues love the application.
  
  Other comment: It would be nice if it incorporated Google shopper results so I can get rid of the original widely used “Barcode Scanner” application.
