5 applications to quickly read QR codes on bar and restaurant menus
Table of contents:
Now, when we sit at a table in a bar or restaurant, we miss the menu. Where is? The new regulations prevent bars from delivering physical menus due to the coronavirus pandemic and oblige them to display the dishes on their own website. For the user, it is very annoying to have to look for the page of the place and the letter within it. For this reason, the owners of bars and restaurants are linking their menu through a QR code that the diner can scan from their own mobile phoneTo do this, it is necessary to have a QR code reading application, a type of application that had been forgotten for some time but is now experiencing a second (and unexpected) youth.
We offer you below five applications to read QR codes in bars and restaurants. They are applications very similar to each other and most of them work in the same way: a scanner limited to a square appears on the screen, you place the QR code within the limits of that squareand, as soon as it reads it, a URL appears that you will have to click on. Within that URL is usually the letter. Now all that remains is to choose between one of the dishes... a much more difficult task than reading a simple QR code.
