Default GrapeneOS camera app has a QR code scanner
And how can the camera scan its own phone screen for the QR?
My solution is take a screenshot and then open the file in a separate QR reader app that can open files.
Yeah I'm just not going to use their website. Fuck all that.
I think apps can have screenshot permission, so just by using that feature
Why would I give an app screenshot permission? That is such a security nightmare.
The answer is always convenience. Me stating that something exists doesn't mean I blanket approve of it
