Apple’s first iPhone rose in the hands of the company’s co-founder Steve Jobs when the calendars showed 2007. After 2007, the company introduced many models such as iPhone 3G, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5S, iPhone 6 and iPhone X, respectively. The operating system of these phones, iOS, received many updates during this time, and finally iOS 15 and higher versions were released. While iOS was updated, there were some changes in the interface of iPhones. One of these changes is the Application Archive. The Application Archive is designed to contain all applications. But with the exception of a hidden app.
HERE IS THE SECRET APP OF iPHONE
iPhone models probably have an app that most users don’t even know exists. The name of this application is Code Scanner. The application does not appear on the iPhone’s home screen or in the Application Archive. So how come the Code Scanner is accessed?
HOW TO ACCESS CODE SCANNER ON iPHONE?
To access the Code Scanner app on iOS, all you have to do is use Search. For this;
- Scroll down your screen.
- A search bar and Siri Suggestions will appear.
- Type “code scanner” in the search bar.
- Under the Apps tab you will see an app that says “Code Scanner” with an OR code and scan icon in the middle.
- That is all.
When you click on this application, you can scan the QR codes you come across. This is the main function of the application anyway; Scanning QR codes you will encounter in your daily life. According to The Sun; For example, you can access the menu by scanning the QR code in a restaurant or cafe. It is also possible to add Code Scanner to the application center.
MAY NOT BE SUITABLE FOR EVERY iPHONE
However, not every iPhone is suitable for accessing this hidden app. Because this is only available on iOS 14 or higher.
PRACTICAL OR NOT?
Apple’s camera app can actually read QR codes. Therefore, the existence of such an application is seen as unnecessary and a waste of time. Instead, it is more practical to enter the camera application and read a QR code. But of course, the final decision belongs to the user.
