What would be the point? There are a great many QR apps out there that can call your configured preferred browser when appropriate (assuming Apple allows you to set a preferred browser that isn't their's - I don't have nay iDevices so can't test this personally). QR codes can contain data other than URLs for browsers to follow (though you would be forgiven for thinking otherwise given that in the vast majority of cases this is what they are used to transmit) so it makes more sense to have a QR app that deals with QR codes generally and defers to a browser when a relevant URI is detected.

It should be a camera feature if anything. Just show a small pop-up when camera detects some kind of code in the picture. I don't see why I would need a separate app for that.

Ah, okay. I didn't realize they could contain more data. That would make sense. If it only contained space for URLs, like I assumed, having to open a separate app seems like an extra step, but if they contain more information I guess I can see the reason.
