There are also links to the deleted issue that are not updated to this issue. I decided to manually recreate it anyway in order to complete the information the repo holds even though the restored information might be outdated:
Issue by @schlagmichdoch:
As discussed in #254, if PWAs are in standalone mode they cannot scan the QR codes anymore.
„There could also be the possibility to add a QR code scanner to PairDrop itself. This would make it possible to use QR codes from inside the PWA or an app (like Snapdrop & PairDrop for Android).“
Current idea:
To activate it, add a camera button to the top left corner.
Only show the button if display is standalone and device is Android / iOS.
In order not to clutter the header bar, it should be rearranged: the edit paired devices icon should be hidden. Clicking/hovering over the pairing icon should expand it downwards like so:
(A) (B) (C) (D)
-click on B->
(A) (C) (D)(E) (F)
B: current Pair icon
E: current Edit Paired Devices icon
F: current Pair icon with small plus next to it
