Scan QR codes in Waterfox for Android


Waterfox for Android includes a QR code reader in the address bar so you can open a web address without typing it.

Scan a QR code

  1. Tap the Waterfox address bar.
  2. Above the keyboard, tap Scan.
  3. Point the camera at the QR code.
  4. Review the detected address before opening it.

Waterfox asks for camera permission the first time you scan. If scanning is unavailable, check the Android camera permission for Waterfox.
