iCandy: Make QR Codes That Play Music - ReadWriteWeb From the R&D Labs at Ricoh, there comes a new QR code creation tool called iCandy. With this application, you can easily create QR codes that automatically launch and begin playing your music in iTunes. If you don’t already own the song, scanning the QR code will prompt you to purchase it from either iTunes, Amazon, or Rhapsody. In addition to iCandy’s music-related features, the app can also create codes that take you to any web site with a URL, perfect for bands wishing to promote their MySpace page, Facebook fan page, YouTube video, or anything else on the web. The company behind iCandy, Ricoh – or more specifically Ricoh Innovations, the company’s R&D branch – is not really interested in selling or marketing the application. Creating Codes Using iCandy is easy. Scanning Codes For end users interacting with the barcode, the process is simple, too. iPhone Application in the Works Even better than having to use your computer would be using your iPhone as the barcode scanner instead.
