I have a Pixel 2. It scans QR codes with the default camera app just fine. When it detects a QR code you get a little popup you can click. It even works with regular 1D barcodes.

Long time Pixel user here (and an Android dev for that matter) and I had no idea the camera had qr support!

    If you are fine with sending the camera stream to Google for analysis...

        Hardly a fact. As a privacy minded person I hold the Nexus/Pixel devices quite high in regard in the android ecosystem. Better to be screwed by google, than to be screwed by both google and samsung/whatever.

    Well actually I just tried this with the normal camera and it worked fine without activating lens (or having given it any permissions).

Same here with my Samsung Galaxy S8+. There's a QR code scanner in the camera app.
