23 mobile things- thing#3 utilities

For this blog, I downloaded Red Laser. At first glance, I was hesitant because it didn't seem useful. However, after scanning a few barcodes for different products, I changed my mind. Personally, I could use it to track the ads and sales for a certain item and even check prices online. It also lets me scan qr codes and opens them in Safari.  Professionally, I could use it to create qr codes to advertise library programs and events. I could also use the scanner to check prices for people if they would rather buy an item instead of check it out, or if the library can't get it any longer. Another utility app I found and use is called iCatchall: 27+ apps in one. The most useful parts of this is the currency converter, the tip calculator, and the level. It also tells you when the next full moon is and has many fun sounds and games. Considering it's free, the price is well worth it.
