Do QR codes work if Screenshotted?

I'm wondering if QR codes would still work if I take a screenshot of them. Can they be scanned and recognized properly from a photo or does it have to be the original code? Do QR codes work if Screenshotted?

Once you have the screenshot, open the Photos app and locate the image of the QR code in your camera roll.

Tap on the image to open it in full view, and then long-press on the QR code until a menu appears.

Yes, it is indeed possible to scan a QR code from an image saved in your camera roll on both iOS and Android devices, without needing any additional applications.

From the menu, select the option to "Scan QR Code." Your iOS device will then recognize and decode the QR code for you.

For iOS users, begin by taking a screenshot of the QR code on your device. This can be done by pressing the power button and the volume up button simultaneously.
