SmartLabel for Android

I downloded the app after finding a Smartlabel on some candy I bought and after seeing the other reviews about it not working. Curiosity got the best of me so I downloaded it to try it just in case. It worked fine for me and the product I scanned, but other reviews report products not being found and poor formatting. Everything worked fine for me for the one scan, but the alarm while scanning was a bit annoying. Overall great potential especially for small items like an individually wrapped candy ex: a lollipop/sucker. The item I tried it on was the Whoppers Mini Robin Eggs 1$ candy carton and it worked great. I think that this would be a great idea for any small food item’s packaging.

Purchased Dial Soap that explicitly says it uses this app on the box. When scanned, the app says it does not recognize this item. So, that was pointless.

Crashes upon scanning, doesn’t find any of the items I’ve tried to scan even though they are marked “smartlabel: scan for more info” on the box. Not sure if this project is still active?

I purchased a product with a barcode that featured “SmartLabel” app on the product. After some research, decided to install the iOS app. Scanning the barcode did not come up with anything. A manual search resulted in the manufacturer but not the product that featured the “see more on SmartLabel app.” I checked both the US and Canadian sites. Seems like some marketing idea that fizzled. Uninstall.

I thought the app would be better then their website, but surprise! I was wrong! Not only does it say products aren’t “smart label” products that clearly are, basic tasks in the app are too much for it to handle. Why bother with publishing this? Back to the drawing boards folks.
