Re: I May Be the Last To Know™ - iPhone hidden scanner feature - RAMd®d - 04-22-2020 I too, did not know this. And now that I have an AirPrint capable printer, this is worthwhile news. Occasionally, I would might have seen a feature that didn't do me any good, and forgot about it long ago. But this is news to me. I though this was going to be about scanning QR codes and was hoping to mention I use that almost frequently.

Have done a lot of flailing trying to get multiple photos of document pages into a single file attached to an email! Re: I May Be the Last To Know™ - iPhone hidden scanner feature - wurm - 04-22-2020 Well, color me ignorant. I'm running iOS 12.1.2 on my SE. I open Notes and can create a new note, but I don't see the camera icon anywhere.

Re: I May Be the Last To Know™ - iPhone hidden scanner feature - cbelt3 - 04-22-2020 Dang that is cool. Thanks for sharing ! The regular Scanner apps do OCR though, which is helpful for search functionality. Re: I May Be the Last To Know™ - iPhone hidden scanner feature - rgG - 04-22-2020 Thanks! I have a scan app, but I will try this. I had no idea. Re: I May Be the Last To Know™ - iPhone hidden scanner feature - ztirffritz - 04-22-2020 New to me. Thanks. Re: I May Be the Last To Know™ - iPhone hidden scanner feature - Zoidberg - 04-22-2020 The camera app can also act as a QR code scanner. Just open up your camera, get close to the QR code, and a box will appear and ask you about opening the code's link. This came in handy for me just a few days ago when I needed to access additional information on my dryer (broken knob).
