So, I recently switched from Android to IPhone, and it doesn't look like the
Darwin Wallet App (money identifier for Android) has a version for IPhone. Not
too keen on spending $99 for the KNFB reader...I think that's a ridiculous price.
Any alternatives?

The looktel money reader is pretty good. http://www.looktel.com/moneyreader

If you're specifically looking for a money reader, you have about six dozen
options from the app store. I think the one I use is just called money reader. I
haven't used it in forever though, so I could be wrong.

I like the same one in post 2.
It cost a little, but is kept current as the iOS is updated.

Agreed RE: Looktell. Since it uses video camera instead of still shots, one can readily scan a few bills one after the other. Just be sure to shut down the app when done or you'll drain the battery.

Yep, I use LookTell Money Reader, too. It was about ten dollars at the time I bought it, and worth every penny.

I also don't find it bothers my battery at all, on or not.
It is like any other app on my phone.
Once I close it or leave it, it is just there.
Might be you are talking about just leaving it active Leo?

Probably. I got used to shutting it down completely and so have not left it open even though they have the new settings in iOS 7 and 8.

Yup, money reader is really good.
