a recent "feature" update of google chrome has a "create QR code of this page" button on its search box (address bar).does anyone actually need/use this?

Yeah it feels a bit weird.Maybe it’s intended for marketing persons? E.g. when you need a link for use on a poster and stuff like that.

It's an easy way to copy a link to a mobile device.

Maybe some people do. But if you don't use this feature, ignore it. The button being there doesn't affect your use of Chrome, does it? And if it does, it might be time to switch browsers.

I think it's very useful to send links to mobile.I use <a href="https://Qrile.com" rel="nofollow">https://Qrile.com</a> everyday, may times for the same.

I use it to copy links from my work Macbook to my Android phone.

I've been using them inside github readme.md files. Seems like a convenient way to send mobile users to a demo page.Example:<a href="https://github.com/arcanus55/neodigm55" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/arcanus55/neodigm55</a>

It's so you can open the page on your phone.
