If you need to import a QR signer, the extension must use the system camera to scan the QR code and import the account. By default, camera access is blocked. To enable camera access for the extension, go to the main menu, select “Settings,” and check the “Allow QR camera access” option, as shown below.


🟢 After enabling the feature, you may notice a green LED light next to your webcam on your PC or laptop. This indicates that the camera is active and the feature is functioning as expected. There’s no need to worry; it’s simply a sign that the system is checking the enabled feature. If you no longer need to use the QR signer, you can uncheck the option if you prefer.
