Description

Hi,

Would it be possible to add an option to display a QR code that links to PlayCanvas hosted build so that it can be quickly opened on a mobile device?

Something like this

Whether it’s generated automatically or only after pressing a button, it would be a great time saver when trying to open a new build on a mobile device for testing.

There’s a number of free qr code generating scripts out there, so I don’t imagine this would be too difficult to build. I’m sure it wouldn’t be high on the priority list, but it could be a quick “quality of life” update.

Thank you!
