Scanning a QR code is safe as long as you only do it from trusted sources. A QR code can trigger an action or request, so it’s important to be cautious.
For Smart-ID QR codes, always use the official Smart-ID app — this ensures the code is read and processed correctly and securely in your phone.
To stay safe:
- Scan QR codes only on trusted websites and services
- Use the Smart-ID app to scan Smart-ID QR codes
- Confirm only actions that you started yourself
- If something seems unexpected or suspicious, cancel the request!
