SfBarcode sometimes generating invalid QR

Sometimes the QR code is not well generated on iOS and therefore it can't be read by the QR Scanner.

Please find screenshots attached for both scenarios.

Hi Rubens,

Greetings from Syncfusion.

We can resolve the issue with “QR Barcode scanning issue in iOS” by setting ErrorCorrectLevel as Medium. Kindly try this solution in your end with the below code snippet to overcome the issue.

<syncfusion:SfBarcode BackgroundColor="Gray" Text="c2952c50-6b00-4fdb-8ef4-22a1a0c6d587" Symbology="QRCode">

<syncfusion:SfBarcode.SymbologySettings>

<syncfusion:QRBarcodeSettings XDimension="6" ErrorCorrectionLevel="Medium"/>

</syncfusion:SfBarcode.SymbologySettings>

</syncfusion:SfBarcode>

Regards,

Hi Karthikeyan,

Our configuration is as follows:

QRBarcodeSettings settings = new QRBarcodeSettings();

settings.Version = QRVersion.VersionAuto;

settings.ErrorCorrectionLevel = QRErrorCorrectionLevel.High;

barcode.SymbologySettings = settings;

Note that the ErrorCorrectionLevel was already set to high and we still had that issue with the QR generated.

Based on our test, issue appears randomly when the mobile orientation is changed to Landscape, the QR image gets distorted and can't be read.

Tested on iPhone XS iOS v12.0.1 and iPhone SE.

Please advice.

Regards,

Rubens

Hi Rubes,

We were not able to reproduce the mentioned issue and the QR image is scanned properly without any issue. Please find the below sample link which we have tried in our end,
