I posted an app idea for this a few months ago to the subreddit "Startup_Ideas" and reading over the text now, it's definitely not perfect yet:

But surely there is some "QR City" app that could help make these talks with new people, easier, more frequent, socially normalized, and gamified! I'm kind of shocked still in 2022 when trying to get someone's contact info we do that dance of speaking digits, typing them in and txt'ing or calling to transfer our number vs. a QR scan.
"Picture a world where strangers are not as scary. People are not as isolated and alone. Instead of asking for someone's phone number, you just hold open your IRL Present app. It has a distinctive branding border around the QR so people know what it is when someone puts their phone out with that showing. Even shy people can just open their app and show a QR without saying a word."
