Description

### Steps to reproduce

1. Login on iOS as a second device after being on web/desktop

### Outcome

#### What did you expect?

Scanning the QR is instant, just like on Android.

#### What happened instead?

The QR code is comically hard to scan, having to wobble around the phone and/or laptop until they are in the right position to be recognized. See the screen recording:
