Just point your Snapchat camera at a QR code and hold your finger on the screen; Snapchat takes care of the rest.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Amazon:<\/strong> When in the app, simply use the camera icon in the search bar to scan a QR code for a product. If Amazon carries it, you\u2019ll have all the details right at your fingertips.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Google Lens:<\/strong> It goes beyond regular QR code scanning.
