The QR scanner in the camera stopped working suddenly, after I used it a few times

You might also try launching your camera in QR-Scanner mode using Control Center as described here:

Also, not all 2-D codes are “QR Codes” … attempting to scan a non-QR code will not create any response by the camera.

Restart your iPhone
