Android QR scanner does not detect QR code on some phones
Device: Samsung Galaxy M52 5G Download: PlayStore Android Version: 13
Please provide more details. In what way does it not work? What are you doing exactly, and what happens? Did older versions of Electrum also exhibit the problem?

When I use the scan to make a payment or to import a public key it doesn't work. As soon as I point the camera at the QR code nothing happens.

I've just tested scanning the QR code from your video with the built-in scanner using my phone and it scanned it correctly. Perhaps the issue is specific to some devices or depends on the quality of the camera.
I saw a noticable delay (eventually it took) when holding the scanner exactly level. When tilting a bit the detection was much faster.
