I really would like to know how to scan QR codes without playing 3rd-party app roulette. Which button do you have to press?

I have the OnePlus 10 Pro. I've looked through all of the menus and settings, there's nothing that seems to be QR code related? Maybe they've removed the feature?

If you google your question, you literally get a set of videos showing you how to do it.

In 30 seconds, I found that you can do it by using the Google Lens feature, which is a button to the left of your zoom button in your camera app. If you don't want to use that, you can use google lens directly.

Ah, the trick is not to have disabled the Google Lens app. I'd seen that video before, but in never clicked that Lens was required. Thanks.
