I don’t think my past two phones (one Android, one iOS) have built in QR scanning, or at least it’s not very discoverable. No fun to have to find something in an App Store when it all looks like 7 year old malware.

You can point the builtin Camera app on iOS to any QR code, it will pick it up just fine.

  I discovered this week when fooling around with QR code makers that the Android camera app, at least the one released on Samsung phones, does not read QR codes. That was very surprising to me.

On iOS, you can use the Camera app on your iPhone or enable the Code Scanner button on the Control Panel: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/iphone/iphe8bda8762/ios https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/iphone/iphe8bda8762/io...
