But that's the barcode app - is it always running, looking for barcodes in all the photos you take? Because there are already shirt with giant barcodes on them - presumably just artistic with no meaning, but who knows?

I have a shirt with a QR code that goes to a Rick roll. It doesn't work nearly as well as I'd hoped. Even people trying to scan it have a hard time, forget about anyone scanning it unknowingly. Mr. Astley did in fact let me down.

My camera brings up the links/data in any QR code that's in the shot, I would have to fatfinger it and click the link (twice, because it asks you to confirm that you want to open the link) though

Has Google's camera app added that yet? If not it's only a matter of time.
