PortuguêsHow can I scan a QR Code without an app?
To scan QR codes without downloading a special app, you have several convenient options.
Built-in Smartphone Camera Function
Many modern smartphones come equipped with QR code scanning capabilities directly within the camera application. Simply open your camera app and point it at the QR code. The phone will automatically recognize the QR code and typically display a notification or a link. You can tap on this to access the content linked by the QR code.
Web-based QR Code Scanners
Integrated Features in Other Apps
Some apps that are not primarily designed for scanning QR codes might still offer this functionality. Social media apps like Snapchat and Facebook, for instance, often include a QR code scanner in their camera functions. This allows you to scan QR codes without exiting the app, facilitating a smoother experience if you are already using these platforms.
