my photos app doesn't do that for some reason, when i use lens it just recognizes the qr and searches for qr code images. it's the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

edit: after your comment i also tried launching the lens app directly (rather than using lens from photos) and pick the image rather than using a camera, and that works. so google has two versions of lens on my phone that act differently. brilliant.

Barcode Scanner (F-Droid) is another app that will decode a QR code from an image.
