In our pursuit to evolve our site with the times, we often change things up. Many of you may remember our old blog roll and loved it. While our new layout and look has improved the look and feel of AndroidStory, we are constantly searching for ways to change things up and make thing better. One of the more necessary additions has been consistently found at the bottom of every app, game, theme or anything else from the Play Store. Those handy-dandy little QR codes that you can scan with you phones camera to be directed to the content for install or purchase. We know they were used extremely often prior to the Play Store incorporating an install option and an online market. Now that you can go straight to the Play Store on the web and install anything you want without the need to scan the QR codes, we are curious to find out how relevant they are at this point in time in Android’s evolution?
I know on a personal level, if I am reading about an app on my device I click a link to go get it. While I am on my PC I see no need to grab my phone and scan a QR code if it will just take me to the Play Store. I just click it and install it from the web.
Below is a brief poll asking for you to take just a second to click an answer. If the majority of people don’t even use them any more we will move forward and just offer a link instead of the long drawn out QR code additions. Please take a moment and answer the survey and feel free to comment at the bottom about the use of QR codes for the Play Store versus their use to access other mobile only content or offers.
