Sample Comments
One solution would be qr scanner...
when all you have is a QR code ...
Aren't QR code readers built into Android and iOS?
Please do not only offer qr codes. Some people might not have (working) cameras.
A qr code wouldn't do much...
QR codes might be workable if the camera app automatically detected them.
Try to scan the QR and you will understand. Hopefully.
A QR code should work if at least one of the browsers has camera access, I suppose?
QR code detected, no usable data found…
Which QR code app are you using?
