To effectively scan QR codes with your Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, you need to adjust specific settings in the Camera app. Here are the steps to ensure everything is set up correctly:
Adjusting QR Code Scanning Settings
1. Open the Camera App: Start by launching the Camera app from your home screen or app drawer.
2. Access Settings:
- Tap on the Settings icon, usually represented by a gear symbol within the Camera app.
3. Enable QR Code Scanning:
- Look for the option labeled Scan QR Codes.
- Ensure this option is toggled ON. If itâs OFF, tap to enable it[1][2][3].
Additional Tips
- Use the Rear Camera: Always use the rear camera for scanning, as it typically provides better focus and clarity for QR codes[1][3].
- Quick Settings Access: Alternatively, you can swipe down from the top of your screen to access Quick Settings and tap on Scan QR Code for direct access without opening the Camera app[2][4].
- Troubleshooting: If you encounter issues, consider downloading Google Lens from the Play Store as an alternative scanning method[1].
By following these steps, you'll be able to scan QR codes efficiently with your Galaxy S24 Ultra.
