My iphone 15 won't scan QR codes

1) Which app are you scanning with?

2) Are you scanning from far enough away to allow the camera to focus?

You shouldn't need to tap focus, just hold it far enough away to allow the phone to focus itself.

That does not work, it will pick up the nearest object in focus when you hold the camera out and give false information.

Do you have a an area full of bar codes you're trying to read one of?

Im seeing problem as well but no response from apple!

Same issue

After upgrading to 17.4 all works fine. Please note I was not referring to external scanning apps but to a native Apple photo camera which shall scan square codes to open web sites.

I saw the apple guy use the phone to do it with qr scanner and it did go into macro mode when it went closer.... so not strictly true

My iPhone 13 won’t scan QR code since the iOS 17. The Code Scanner in Ctrl Center fails to focus, remains blurry. This is definitely a bug with camera focus.

Hey! For the lay person, how would we implement this fix???

My new iPhone 15 cannot scan the QR code of the RSA SecurID Authenticator application, the QR scan code of Iphoen read it but the app can't.

There's no defect here.

Codes scan perfectly when in focus.

The author of the third-party application needs to properly code their app.

Most apps, including those from Amazon, Scandit and Walmart, have zero issues.
