How to Scan a QR Code on a Pixel Phone
QR codes are a great way to quickly access information, whether it’s a website, business card, or product information. Pixel phone users can easily scan QR codes using their phone’s built-in camera and Google Lens.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to scan a QR code on a Pixel phone:
1. Open your Pixel phone’s camera app.
2. Point your camera at the QR code you want to scan. Make sure the code is centered in the camera viewfinder.
3. If your phone is not set up to automatically recognize QR codes, you’ll need to tap the “Google Lens” button in the corner of the camera app. This will activate Google’s image recognition technology.
4. Once the QR code is recognized, you’ll see a pop-up notification with a link. Tap the link to access the content
associated with the QR code.
If you have a Pixel 2 or later phone, you can also scan QR codes using the Google Assistant. Here’s how:
1. Launch the Google Assistant by pressing and holding the “Home” button or saying “Hey Google.”
2. Say “Scan a QR code.”
3. Point your camera at the QR code you want to scan.
4. Google Assistant will recognize the QR code and provide a link to the associated content.
