That's interesting.

My phone kept (mis)reading UPC-E values from the XL QR code!



Yeah looks like the "Barcode Scanner" app doesn't like a QR code with multiple square nodes in it, but needs three good corners or so.


Just tested it on an iPhone 3 (using an app merely called "Scan") — no reaction whatsoever.


Weird you guys are having problems because it scans perfectly using the standard barcode scanner app on my Desire S (running MIUI): http://www.armyofcrabs.com/qrsnake.png


RL Classic on iPhone 4S correctly scanned the code, but did not launch a browser. Tried on iPad 2 last night and safari didn't render it properly, anyway.
