- AdmiralAsshat 7y agoNews to me, thanks! Now I can tell my parents to scrub whatever crap they grabbed from the appstore.
- wlesieutre 7y agoThat support document doesn't elaborate the types of codes it can scan, here are the ones I'm aware of: URLs -> Safari Locations -> Maps Contacts -> Contacts WiFi SSID/password -> Join network
- tuacker 7y agoTo reduce confusion more: The QR scanner only works on the camera accessed via the lock screen, but not from the actual "Camera.app"
- wlesieutre 7y agoJust tested and this is not the case. In iOS 12 and iPad OS 13 it definitely works in the camera app launched from home screen.
- saagarjha 7y agoiOS 11 added this, actually.
