You can use that if you wish, however there is an entirely separate and dedicated QR reader built into iOS that is accessible from control center. The icon to launch it is even a QR code which eliminates such “confusion”.
- crazygringo 7y agoHuh, I had no idea there was a dedicated QR reader "app", since it's not a default icon (you have to add it from within Settings), and there's no actual app. But it's there! Interesting they added that when the camera app already scans QR codes. I wonder if it's an enterprise thing for devices in the field, where companies want to prevent the camera app (no photos), but need to scan codes.
