iPad Portrait Mode Prevents QR Code Scanning #1014

@RyanButton

Description

@RyanButton

The QR code scanner fails to detect codes when the device is in portrait mode. Rotating the iPad to landscape mode allows QR codes to be scanned successfully. This issue has been replicated across multiple devices.

Attempts were made to resolve the issue by adjusting component configuration (e.g., QR box width, aspect ratio), but these had no effect.

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

  1. Embed the QR code scanner into an HTML5 document.
  2. Open the page on an iPad in portrait mode.
  3. Attempt to scan a QR code.

Expected behaviour
QR codes should be scanned successfully in both portrait and landscape orientations.

Device Information:

  • iPad
  • OS: iPadOS
  • Browser chrome, safari
  • Version: 18.5, 16.7.11
