SfBarcode sometimes generating invalid QR

[Prashant Purmah]

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>

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
