Scanbuy’s Multi-Barcode Reader Released for Google’s Android Platform

ScanLife Gives Users Direct Access to Mobile Content in Seconds

New York – January 13, 2009 – Scanbuy, a global leader in mobile marketing solutions, announced today that its ScanLife multi-barcode reader is now compatible for mobile phones running on Google Android. This free application can be downloaded from Android Market or by going to www.getscanlife.com on the mobile browser.

With the ScanLife application, users can scan all major 2D barcode formats (Datamatrix, EZcode, QR) to automatically display a specific Web site, launch a video, dial a phone number, and more. This eliminates the need to type lengthy Web addresses or search for content by keywords. People can go to www.scanlife.com to create their own codes for free which link to their social networking sites or contact information. These codes can be placed on Web sites, business cards, and other printed or digital media.

ScanLife for Android also supports traditional UPC or 1D barcodes by using the camera’s advanced auto-focus system. When the UPC information is available, the application will launch comparative pricing and retailer details for that specific product. While ScanLife is compatible with hundreds of handset models, the HTC G1 is the first device to include this feature in the United States.

“The ScanLife experience on Android is one of the best we have seen.” said Jonathan Bulkeley, Chief Executive Officer of Scanbuy. “The ability to read both 1D and 2D codes enhances our technology and differentiates it over existing applications. This additional feature will help build a wider user network which delivers a better overall solution for our customers.”

In addition to Android, the ScanLife software is also compatible with the world’s most popular operating systems including BlackBerry, iPhone, Java, Symbian and Windows Mobile. People can download ScanLife at www.getscanlife.com on the mobile browser.
