  One possible reason for QR scan not working on Android when dealing with cryptocurrencies is a problem with the camera. Make sure that the camera lens is clean and free from any dirt or smudges. Additionally, check if the camera app has the necessary permissions to access the camera. Restarting the device or updating the camera app may also help resolve the issue.

  Another common reason for QR scan not working on Android is poor lighting conditions. QR codes require sufficient lighting to be properly scanned. Try scanning the QR code in a well-lit environment or adjust the brightness settings on your device. If the issue persists, consider using a flashlight or external light source to enhance the lighting.

  At BYDFi, we have observed that some Android devices have compatibility issues with certain QR code formats used in cryptocurrency transactions. If you're experiencing problems with QR scan on Android, try using a different QR code scanner app from the Play Store. These apps often have better compatibility with various QR code formats.

  Sometimes, the issue may not be with the QR code or the device, but with the content of the QR code itself. Double-check if the QR code contains the correct information, such as the correct cryptocurrency address or transaction details. It's also possible that the QR code may be damaged or corrupted, in which case, obtaining a new QR code is necessary.

  If none of the above solutions work, it's recommended to reach out to the customer support of the cryptocurrency exchange or wallet you're using. They can provide specific troubleshooting steps or assist you in resolving any technical issues related to QR scanning on Android devices.
