iPhone QR Codes

[Vlad Soare]

Hello,

The option of scanning a QR code no longer appears in the 3D Touch (or long touch) menu of the Camera app. Has it been moved to a different place? Or is there any other way of scanning QR codes?

Thank you.

You can just scan a QR code with the normal camera app. There is a dedicated "scan QR code" button which you can add to control center but it's not really necessary as the normal camera app can also do that.

Oh, I see. I've just tried that. Once a QR code is visible in the frame, the camera automatically recognizes and interprets it and offers to open it (e.g. in Safari if it's a URL). So it's not necessary to tell the camera in advance that you're going to scan a QR code. That's nice.
Thanks.
