Using envision and seeing AI to get a barcode off a product

Hi all. I grabbed butter to thaw for the next morning's breakfast only to discover I wasn't sure if it were salted or not. So I grabbed envision, and it just made a beep when I kept pushing the scan barcode button as I flipped the box around. This is after i'd tried to use Seeing AI with absolutely no success. i clicked on the done button after the release notes, allowed camera access and selected barcode channel. Then that's all i can do. There's no take photo button though it's been quite a bit since i've used it. can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? iPhone 12 latest OS well, beta to be honest, and plenty of battery. thx

You should be able to go to the barcode part and move it around the box without having to press anything but honestly, and I know this doesn't help now, but I'd wait to use the vertual volunteer with BeMyEyes.

I did get salted butter, but Irish temper or frustration doesn't help either lmao.
