To do this, tap the Bixby Vision icon in the top left corner of the camera app. Additionally, some phones may require you to enable QR code scanning in their main settings screen.
Using Google Lens:
Google Lens is a powerful tool that can also scan QR codes.
Make sure your phone is running Android 8 or above.

Google Lens will recognize the QR code and provide relevant information or actions based on it.
