You are such a great teacher. I am a senior, and finally understood how to scan a code. Thank you so much.

[@deankay4434]

GM used QR codes (what engineers called 3D-Bar Code) on diesel fuel injectors that was an exact measurement of how much fuel was injected at normal pressure. This would allow the computer to open the injector longer, shorter or the same as another. This kept every power stroke identical HP & Torque. This is a racing Holly Grail. Gear head, retired.

[@BluMNBafnGaming]

I didn’t know iPhones had a built in QR code scanner I thought I needed a app😂

[@kerrytomt5]

Do you need to download a software program app for barcode items at grocery stores to fetch for prices? Or is it already built in on my se 2nd generation iphone. The QR code is completely a different program compare to what I'm asking.

[@linok7317]

She said go to yr HP camera and do the settings to ON or OFF to scan the qr code. Hope this helps. :)

OK I went to the site that you linked for your free QR and it is not free. It is a 14day free trial. Honestly is a virtue

[@111qp2]

Thank you !!! I needed this information! Simple, quick and easy. Great video🥳🥳🥳

[@sharon1129]

So you have to be connected to the internet when scanning the code? There seems to be a mixed response when i ask people here in Australia? Some say yes and some say no.

[@Socialmedia4beginners]

Sharon, you do not need to be connected to the internet in order to use your camera for the QR code HOWEVER, you can pretty much assume that the QR code is taking you to somewhere online and that you do need Internet to access wherever that QR codes is taking you. Hopefully that makes sense. Be Blessed, Audrey

[@TomBTerrific]

Yes either WiFi or have a data plan with your phone.

[@nativearizona1]

You're a wonderful instructor, I'm old 77, and all this new stuff is very complicated. Could you put up a video on Gigagites etc as I don't understand the terminology~Nobody is born educated I don't care what they know it all's say~Youre GREAT!

[@noahriding5780]

Can you make JPG pics of QR Codes, when you go places for stores to scan them for refunds or returns? Thanks.

[@Socialmedia4beginners]

Yes, you can. Depending on where you made the QR code, they should allow you to download it as a jpg. or png and then you can use it where ever you'd like. Great idea by the way!!! Be Blessed, Audrey

[@Ochoa37]

Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom with us

[@japice1]

Good explanation but website is down.

[@sanford943]

how come you don't do this for android. So here is my problem. I subscribe to some substacks. I assume some where on my phone I have the ap. When I go to my email an click on a substack I subscribe to there is a link to read on the ap. However I can't do it on my phone. If I click on the read it on the ap, it takes me to the qr code and says to dowload the ap. I scan the code but nothing happens after that. Parade magazine did the same thing a few years ago when it stopped publishing a print version. So how do I get to the ap on my lap top

[@Socialmedia4beginners]

Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with substacks and I only have Apple products right now. Have you tried going to the Google Play Store and searching for the app there? Or you could go to their website and it looks like on the footer there is a link to be able to go right to the app on your phone. I'm not really sure about apps on the laptop as it looks like they only have it for tablet and mobile devices. Be Blessed, Audrey

GREAT VIDEO I was so hopeful but it didn't work on my iphone even though I am using software version 15.3.1 and the scan qr code button is green in settings. So darn frustrating

[@Socialmedia4beginners]

Have you tried it with different QR codes? If you were trying it with mine in this video, unfortunately, I didn't realize I was on a 14-day trial when I did this video with the QR code and this entire time no one could scan the code. Hopefully you were able to get it to work. Be Blessed, Audrey

[@Hemkopbroderi]

Do you have to use the back camera? Cuz mine is broken and when I try to use the front It doesn’t work.😞😭🙏

[@Socialmedia4beginners]

Yikes. I hate to hear that. Unfortunately, I just tried it on my iPhone 12 and it didn't work either. :( It would appear that you need to use the back camera. Sorry about that.

How do you do it from a screenshot on your camera roll taken from a video without another device and especially without some bloatware-laden app?

[@Socialmedia4beginners]

I just did this the other day. I took a screen shot of a frame in this video that had my QR code, went to my photos, cropped the image down to just the qr code, opened it up tapped and held down on the image and the menu popped up. It said Open in Safari, clicked on that and viola, it opened right to the link I'm linked the QR code to. Give that a try with the screenshot you have on your camera roll and let me know if it works for you. Be Blessed, Audrey

[@billlandon2160]

@@Socialmedia4beginners thank you didn’t work in my camera roll and I’m up to date on iOS, must only be the newer hardware (I got iPhone 8 Plus)

[@Socialmedia4beginners]

Oh darn it. When you tapped and held down on the image did any menu pop up? I would think that the iOS, if up to date would allow you to do this. I do have an iPhone 12 pro but I wouldn't think that would matter. I've seen other videos that have iPhone 6, 7, 8 + be able to scan the code. Have you tried to scan a regular QR code from your camera and it work? I'm wondering if maybe the image is not clear enough?

[@billlandon2160]

@@Socialmedia4beginners yeah I’m thinking resolution too. Only able to “delete”, “add to all photos”, “revert” to pre-cropped, etc context menu when pressing and holding from camera roll.

You'll want to save that image of the QR code to your photos then open it in photos, tap and hold down on it until a menu pops up. Then choose Open in Safari (or whatever browser you have set as your default) and that's it. It should take you to where the creator wanted it to go.
