For some people, saving money involves a bit more than just bringing coupons to the store. A lot of people, especially people involved with tech, often use barcode apps to scan items and to find better deals online. Price checking and barcode scanning apps have been around on smartphones for a while now, but they only started arriving on smart glasses about a year ago.

Back in 2013, an app called CystralShopper was released. It was a barcode scanner and price checking app for Google Glass. It compared the prices of scanned items to the prices of items on Amazon. It was a pretty cool app, but it seems the developer wasn’t interested in maintaining it, because it no longer works and is very outdated.

So, Google Glass owners have been without a barcode scanner app for a little while now. Luckily, it seems they have received a new barcode scanner and price comparison app, and it seems like it is going to be pretty reliable.

Ebay has finally brought its Redlaser app to Google Glass. Redlaser is a barcode scanner and a price comparison application that has been on smart phones for a while now, but it’s now available on Google Glass as well. The application allows Explorers to scan items and compare the prices of the items to prices in offline and online stores like Ebay, JC Penny, Nordstrom, and others.

Like all of the glassware that’s available, the application can be controlled by using voice commands. People who decide to install the glassware can scan a barcode by saying the command “OK Glass, scan a barcode”. People can also use the glassware to search for a specific item by saying the command “OK Glass, find a product”.

Users of the application can also use it to view similar or related products. Products that are scanned or searched for, all have related products listed in a separate card.

Here is the official Glassware description:

The leading shopping and price comparison app that helps +30 million users to shop smarter is now available on Glass – turning you into the ultimate shopper! With RedLaser for Glass you will be able to easily compare prices of thousands of online and local retailers just by scanning a product’s barcode right from your Glass. Ask Glass to find a product to quickly locate available stores, navigate to a nearby local store or even purchase online by sending yourself an email notification to complete the transaction on any mobile device or PC you own.

I’m glad that such a well-supported barcode scanning and price checking application has come to Google Glass. CrystalShopper was an appreciated application, but for some reason it didn’t get updated. Still, Explorers once again have something they can use to save money and to find new items.
