Along with offering amazing Pre-Black Friday deals, Amazon.com announced a new price comparison app for the iPhone. Customers can use the
app to scan a barcode, snap a picture, or say or type a product name to
receive instant prices for that item from Amazon.com and other online
merchants - and then buy the product.
With Price Check by Amazon for iPhone, shoppers can price check four ways:
- Scan a barcode: Amazon's barcode scanner will match an item and
provide pricing from Amazon.com and other online merchants in seconds.
- Snap a picture: Snap a photo and instantly match the picture to
books, DVDs, CDs and video games, with more categories added every day.
- Say the product name: Speak the name of a product to return accurate
product matches and pricing from Amazon.com and other online merchants.
- Type your search: Type the product name to retrieve instant matches.
Price Check by Amazon includes prices on millions of products - from
books to HDTVs to baby strollers - from Amazon.com and other online
merchants. The app also includes access to Amazon's popular shopping
features, such as customer reviews; sharing via Twitter, Facebook, text
message or email link; and immediate purchasing using 1-Click ordering
and Amazon Prime.
The Price Check by Amazon App for iPhone is available free on the iPhone App Store at www.itunes.com/appstore.
