So what happened in the past I didn't know how to scan a barcode on my Android phone and I downloaded lots of Android barcode scanning apps and later on I found out that most of these scan apps are scam or they're trying to you know steal your personal information so what happens if you go to your google play and if you just search for barcode then you're going to see lots of like you know barcode scanning apps there are like tons of them and the the thing is most of these are stealing your personal information and they don't even work properly if you go through the you know comments you're going to see that so today I'm going to show you how you can easily scan barcode without any apps or anything so what happens if you put anything in front of your camera which has a barcode just like this so for example this is a deck of cards and if I just put it here then it's going to give you a result which looks like this and then if you click on it then it's going to take you to the site where you're going to see more about the information now this is not actually a barcode because this is just using the google lens and you can you know activate google lens by going to your phone setting so for example if you go to phone settings right here and if you search for lens so then it's going to take you google lens suggestion and you have to just like you know activate that which is on the right so you can just you know slide it to the right and it's going to activate the google lens suggestion that is going to give you suggestion about the product so for example it's going to show you you know where you can buy them or more information if you have a QR code the process is the same so you have to just you know put your camera on top of the QR code and it's going to detect the QR code right away and it is going to take you to the QR code website in this case this is going to take you to Microsoft age website and this is very handy when you are at a restaurant or when you are at a store and they have a QR code on display and you can just you know look at the menu or order the menu but it is only available via the QR code so in those cases you can just you know scan the QR code and it's going to take you to the menu or the information about the business you know is trying to provide you so that's how you scan QR code or barcode with your Android phone thank you for watching this video there'll be more videos coming up so i'll see you shortly thank you
