      The QR code apeture on my tablet is so small and I can't enlarge it that I have to hold my tablet three feet away from tiny QR code on my laptop which I also can't enlarge to get them to sync up in the frame. But the code won't scan. I thought part of the problem was that the Opera/Flow QR code is purplish instead of black so I made black with my monitor settings, still no luck. Then I tried the reverse but the code on my tablet was so small that I had to hold the tablet an inch from the laptop camera to fill the frame which is too close for autofocus.

      When I choose Options --> Login, I login but end up at my profile page and nothing has been accomplished in terms of being able to Flow between my Tablet and Laptop, I just keep getting prompted to scan the QR code that won't scan or keeping fruitlessly logging in when I'm already logged in.

      Any advice or should I just write off the Flow function?

          @leocg I face the same issue as @marcbrazeau .
          There is no option type the code on my Opera mobile. Currently using latest version of Opera Gx and Opera Mobile on Android.

                I have the exact same issue, can we get this sorted please?
                Took me ages to even use Flow and that I am...I can't!
                BTW I am successfully scanning other QR's without issue, even with several different scanners.

                  Problem solved! Just switched my Opera browser to light mode and voila! The QR code scanned like a charm!
