Nowadays, you can find QR (quick-response) codes on everything. These odd-looking, black-and-white, pixelated designs were originally used by the automotive industry, but today they are most often found in magazines, newspapers, and ads.
QR codes offer an efficient way to create links to websites, but they can also store text, phone numbers, email addresses, or calendar events, or send SMS messages. Here are some tips on how to use a Fast QR scanner app to access the data you want.
First, you need a QR-code scanner app and a smartphone or tablet equipped with a camera. iOS users should check out RedLaser. Android fans can try either Fast QR scanner or Free QR code reader. Both of these apps are free to download, and each one should handle any standard QR code just fine.
When you launch your app of choice, you’ll see that your phone’s camera is activated, with an on-screen framing guide. Line up the camera on your device with the QR code you want to scan and hold the device steady until the app can read the code in front of it.
