Describe the feature

As the app supports QR pairing, it will be convenient to directly have a QR scanner in the Android app like Xender

In this regard, user won't have to leave the app to access a QR Scanner.

This would require camera permission which most users probably consider dangerous...

Users who conisder it dangerous will always have the option to not allow camera permission through the app settings so I don't think it will be much an issue though.

Most of file sharing apps with QR feature(Zapya, Xender, Shareit...) have a built-in QR scanner

For the UI, I was thinking of a button next to Snapdrop icon AddText_10-24-11.00.13.jpg

Ty for considering this,
