There are mobile phone barcode scanner apps

Is there a good app to use? I am not very techie but have recently got a smart phone so very steep learning curve but more than willing to keep trying. Do I go to Android market and search for barcode scanner?

I thought these only compared prices locally/online, but didn't think you could get one that is linked in to the Tesco pricing system. I could be wrong though.

As far as I am aware, these apps look up the barcodes against the Tesco online prices. Happy to be corrected though if anyone knows differently.

Tesco have their own apps. The one with the barcode scanner is called 'Tesco Finder' on the apple app store so I guess it will be called the same thing on other app stores.
