WEBCAM: - use your USB-attached webcam /iPhone or phone camera app (EpocCam) to quickly scan QR codes into your computer. Phone camera significantly improves scanning performance.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: - use the button at the bottom of the screen to switch to the iSight camera. - iSight camera has no autofocus feature. It is necessary to place the QR code at the correct distance so it appears sharp. - always ensure that your room is bright to improve scanning results. Use additional light sources in semi-dark / poorly lit rooms. - iPhone as a camera requires macOS 13 Ventura, iOS 16, and iCloud. iPhone as a camera on macOS Sonoma/Ventura/Monterey requires 3rd party iOS app such as EpocCam.
