Excellent idea, agreed.

iOS doesn't have built-in QR reader. So good QR app just should open recognized URL, and then suggest application which will be used to open the file.

Could anyone recommend such app? Tried "Scan" (iOS app), doesn't work for me: has problems recognizing qr code (probably because of my terminal fonts/background) and doesn't suggest app to open file even if QR code is recognized.

Hi, I'm hearing of issues about QR codes unable to be scanned; can you please try scanning the code that I posted in this comment and tell me if it works? :

I'm trying to collect as much info as possible to identify the cause. Thanks!

It does, actually! If you have the camera app open and have a qr code in view, the link comes up as a banner which you can tap.

You've changed my life. It works! (and it reads qr-terminalshare's QR just perfectly)
