Scanning QR Codes and Barcodes QR and Barcode scanner apps use your phone's camera to scan codes. Just point your camera at the QR code or barcode you want to scan and the app will automatically detect and decode the information. Here's a typical example of using a QR code scanner app: Open the QR code scanner app. Point your camera at the QR code or barcode you want to scan. The app will automatically scan the code and display the decoded information on your screen. The information can be a website link, contact information, product information, or any other data that is encoded in the QR code or barcode.

Whatsapp: Create a QR code that opens a chat with a specific Whatsapp contact. Social Media: Create QR codes for your Facebook, Instagram, Tinder, or Snapchat profiles. Text: Create a QR code that contains a block of text. Email: Create a QR code that pre-populates an email with a specific recipient and subject line.
