We’ve decided to go with the most basic QR codes available because after extensive testing with the “mass scan” system, they were the ones with the highest rate of success. We believe it’s more important for this feature to be quick and efficient, since you’re going to use it a lot.
We’ll continue to innovate on this point in the future as technologies evolve, since we’d also like to make the QR codes fit Altered’s overall aesthetic!
Furthermore, we have also tested any inconvenience that these codes might cause in terms of visual noise, and overwhelmingly, users have reported getting accustomed to their presence quite quickly and no longer paying them much attention.
