Barcodes

[Acorn]

I can see the need for a bar code generator for some items. As far as QR codes are concerned, I very seldom see them used anymore. How many people have scanned a QR code recently for much of anything?
I know that Iphones has the QR code reader built into the camera function now so you don't have to download an App to read codes like you use to have to do. But are people actually using this function?

Ray, some browsers have barcode generators built-in to make exchange of links easier. QR-Codes have been a thing in the UK for Covid-19 venues. Useful for What Three Words signposts. Savvy organisations use them to rack success points...

Great. Cool. Enjoy.

The one thing you should do with any QR-Code scanning with your phone is to not allow automatic following.
That why, I can avoid Jeff's YouTubing above but more seriously decide if the link is going to be malicious or even a tracking one.

As an end-user, I find ISBN scanning is great for when I'm selling books so I get the right edition and its details.
