Amazon Dash  

Amazon has released a new device called Amazon dash which they say will make shopping easy. It’s more like USB device that reads bar codes, and works with voice commands.

You scan the barcodes of what you want to buy or tell the dash by voice which it will add it automatically to your amazon shopping list. Which you can later review with your PC or mobile app and order them via amazon which they will deliver it you in the next day. The device is connected using the home wifi network.

It looks like a pretty nifty device, but I can’t understand the fact that why can’t they make a mobile app that works in the similar way, scan the barcode/oq code using the camera, use voice commands to order the things you want using the amazon account rather than making a completely separate device.

Maybe it is more dedicated to the adult, non tech people unlike teens who doesn’t use that many apps.
