  There could be a few reasons why you're unable to scan a QR code to receive Bitcoin on your Android phone. Firstly, make sure that your phone's camera is functioning properly and that it has permission to access the camera. Additionally, check if the QR code is clear and not damaged. If the code is blurry or damaged, it might not be scannable. Lastly, ensure that you have a reliable QR code scanning app installed on your phone. Some apps may have trouble scanning certain types of codes. Try using a different QR code scanning app to see if that resolves the issue.

  Scanning QR codes to receive Bitcoin on an Android phone can sometimes be tricky. One common issue is that the QR code might be too small or too far away from the camera for it to be properly scanned. Try bringing the QR code closer to the camera and make sure it's well-lit. Additionally, some QR code scanning apps have difficulty with certain types of codes. You can try using a different app or updating your current app to see if that helps. If the problem persists, it might be worth reaching out to the app developer or seeking assistance from a technical support forum.
