 * Background Information: ** Easy QR is the free app that is used to read and generate QR codes--those black and white square codes that you are beginning to see everywhere. (see at right)

**Steps to Begin Using EasyQR**

**Step #1:** Download and Open the Easy QR app on your iPad

**Step #2:** Turn on your iPad and **open the EasyQR App.** **Step #3:** Tap the Scan button along the left side to scan a QR Code: line up the QR code you want to scan by using the thin white lines--it seems to work best if you put the QR code in the center of the square (see the image on the right)

**Step #4:** The QR Code (depending on the one you scan) will either display text or display a web site address to visit--use the Visit button in lower right corner of the app to navigate to the web address.

**Step #5:** The Back button in the app will allow you to return to the main menu.

**Step #6:** The History button in the app will allow you to revisit any of the links you navigated to with the QR Code

**Step #7:** Continue scanning until you have scanned all of the QR Codes you would like.
