Almost any user manual nowadays has a QR code, I also see it on magazines, even in printed ads (in Finland also).<p>However, the UX is really bad:
1. most people don&#x27;t know what they are
2. if they learn, then they have to find a QR reader app
3. reading experience: pick phone from pocket, open it, find the app, start it, scan it.<p>Possible solution:
1. phones should have it pre-installed
2. it should be simple to snap a qr tag (e.g. without opening, e.g. with hotkey)
3. url should go to notifications queue or very easily accessible, also for integrations
4. users should be better educated, e.g. when there is a qr tag in a magazine there should be a short explanation.
