IPhone users can scan documents and QR codes on their device
using the built-in notes and camera apps.
Locate your notes app and open it.
Open an existing note or start a new one
by pressing the pencil-and-pad icon
in the bottom right corner.
Above the keyboard, you will see a camera icon.
Tap this.
Tap "Scan Documents."
Your camera will now activate
and the scanning process will begin.
The two icons at the top of the screen
allow you to set your flash setting
and your color setting.
Your iPhone will automatically detect the document,
place a yellow box around it,
and immediately scan it.
If your document isn't automatically detected,
you can tap "Auto" in the top right corner
and change to manual mode.
Now position the camera over the document
and press the capture button at the bottom
when you're ready.
It's the same button you use to take a photo.
Your image will now pop up,
ready for you to reposition the box
around the document you want to scan.
Line the corners up with the corners of your document.
Press "Keep Scan" to continue
or "Retake" to delete the file and start again.
Once you finish scanning all of the pages you need,
tap "Save" in the bottom right corner to finish.
Your scanned document will now appear in your note.
Open your camera and position it
so that the entire QR code is visible.
The iPhone will detect the barcode
and put a yellow box around it.
Once it's been scanned,
a notification bubble will appear.
Tap this to be taken to the website
associated with the QR code.
