I needed to scan a QR code to get into a coworking space. At the time, I wasn't using a camera app that had a QR scanner built in and I didn't have a scanner on my phone, so I went to the Play Store and picked the smallest one I could find. It worked, but it was absolutely packed with ads.

The next thought was obvious.
