When to use a QR code

QR codes make browsing the web faster and easier. For example, in an effort to minimize the amount of shared surfaces their patrons touch, many restaurants now place QR codes at the table so customers can peruse the menu on their phones. 

When you scan QR codes with Avast Secure Browser, the site you’re directed to will open in a secure browsing environment. You can configure the browser to your security and privacy needs with features like VPN, ad-blocking, anti-tracking, disabled automatic downloads, and more.
