    It's possible that the QR code you're trying to scan is low resolution or has been resized, causing it to appear blurry on your smartphone. Try zooming in on the QR code or adjusting the focus of your smartphone's camera to see if that helps. If the QR code is still blurry, you may want to consider obtaining a higher resolution version of the QR code.

    Blurry QR codes can also be caused by poor lighting conditions. Make sure you are scanning the QR code in a well-lit area and avoid any glare or reflections that could interfere with the scanning process. Additionally, clean your smartphone's camera lens to ensure clear and sharp images.

    At BYDFi, we have noticed that some QR codes generated by certain Bitcoin wallets can appear blurry on smartphones. This could be due to a compatibility issue between the wallet software and your smartphone's camera. If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend reaching out to the wallet's support team for assistance or trying a different Bitcoin wallet that is known to generate clear QR codes.

    Sometimes, the QR code itself may be damaged or distorted, which can cause it to appear blurry when scanned. If you suspect this is the case, try obtaining a new QR code from the sender or the source of the transaction. Alternatively, you can manually enter the transaction details instead of scanning the QR code.

    If none of the above solutions work, it's possible that there is a problem with your smartphone's camera or QR code scanning app. Try updating your camera app or using a different QR code scanning app to see if that resolves the issue. If the problem persists, consider contacting your smartphone manufacturer or seeking technical support for further assistance.
