accessible QR reader for iPhone?

I am looking for an accessible QR code reader. I had one that worked, sort of, called QR Reader for iPhone, but it appears an update has broken its functionality. Is there something else anyone here can recommend? I tried a few, but after having to reject at least three of them I decided perhaps asking would be better for my sanity than continuing the search.

Thank you.

Just tell Siri "read QR code." That opens some sort of QR reader which appears to be built into iOS and works fine for me. I don't' have any other apps installed to read QR codes.

Seeing AI also reads qr code.
also, if you go to settings>control center and select qr code, the native IOS qr reader will be appearing at the control center and you can go there and tap on it. put your phone on the qr code and it will read it automatically.
if there is a product you'd like to read the qr code of, you can also try Seeing AI.

The app reads QR codes, but you can also create your own QR, and add custom text or even an audio clip.

I knew Seeing AI could read bar codes, but I did not know it could read QR codes. Which mode would you use to read a QR code?

I do know the native QR support is built into iOS, but it appears you have to be really precise to make that one work, and the individual I am working with... let's just say it wasn't working. So I was hoping to find something a bit less particular, which QR reader was.

I will try QR Blind.

Thanks again.

To convert physical sim to esim, the requirement is to scan a qr code received in email. It is to be done under settings, cellular, add esim profile. I have the email with qr code and I have opened the add esim profile option. Now what to do and how?
