QR codes support #10

Open JakovTomasic opened 1 year ago

JakovTomasic commented 1 year ago

Implement support for taking and/or uploading a picture of a QR code. A QR code should link to a home website with some fields already filled (start and/or destination location).

The primary goal behind the QR code feature is for a user to scan a code in the hallway and eliminate the need for entering the current location using some room nearby. But it could also be used as an alternative method to the share feature.

Floor-by-floor mode seems to be the fastest one. It seems that pressing "next" is causing problems for users because its new and confusing. For floors it would be easy to put qr codes on each steps between floors so the floor would update automatically, thus eliminating need for pressing next altogether.

Additionally, we observed that users commonly mistake floors and go to the wrong one. Qr code would serve as a check for that so the error is eliminated.
