Why scan from image
Scanning from an image helps when the QR code is already on your phone, such as in a screenshot, message, downloaded poster, or saved ticket.
How selected image scanning works
Open the image scanning flow, select the image, and let the app read the QR code inside it. Then review the scan result before copying, sharing, or opening it.
Screenshots and saved images
Screenshots, saved posters, shared images, and downloaded images can all be useful if they contain a clear, readable QR code.
Privacy note
The inspected implementation uses selected image access rather than broad media or storage permissions. Final privacy wording should still be checked before launch.
