Unblock QR Code Reader (iOS) in Intune MDM

Problem

During this hardships, we are helping our community with distributing the vaccines.
We help support the frontlines with iPads for registration and sign ins. The issue is that our Restriction Profile was blocking the Camera App to use its feature called QR Scanner.


Answer

This took some time to figure out but after a few tries, I didn’t know that you need to add the following to your Show or Hide Apps in your Device Restriction Profile:

App Bundle ID: com.apple.barcodesupport.qrcode
App Name: QR Code Reader
Publisher: Apple
