Turn on Scan QR code.

Point your camera at a qr code. You don't need to take a picture - you'll get a message at the top of screen.

My iPhone's camera is not working correctly and it looks blurred I have a 14Pro with iOS 6.1.1 and every 3rd party app I have for scanning barcodes (including Amazon Shopping app) is having issues with focus/zoom view. When the barcode is in the optimal scanning distance or about 2" away (compared to iPhone 12 or my Android phone), it is blurry and cannot be decoded by the 14Pro camera. To get the barcode in focus, the phone needs to be about 5-6" away, but at that distance some of the high density codes (QR Code and Datamatrix) cannot be decoded as they are too far.

Hi kenklabon,

You can scan a QR code with your camera app, as mentioned here: Scan a QR code with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
