Camera, then lenses, then Bing Vision.

It's a bit long winded now.

More easier method : Turn location off from action centre...now press search button..cortana wont load up! The previous bing vision page loads up!

Not easier if you want to use location services or Cortana though

Well he cant use both at the same time..when he wants Cortana he can just turn on location from action centre...and when he wants qr code functionality he can turn off location...its quite simple then going through the lengthier process!

Well you can also use this app to create shorcut of the bing vision page...and for this you don't have to turn off location services or cortana

That's quite a neat trick, I thought you had to turn both off separately, which is why I said at first it wasn't easier.
Never really used Bing Vision myself so never had a need to get it back before.

I remember reading about that app though.

Yea...its quite neat moreover I have posted a app link..which only creates a shortcut and therefore you don't have to even turn off anything..
Yea..same here dont need the qr code function.......ocassionally need it for authentication of apps and geting info from qr...but there are many who use it for work purposes so...quite useful trick...! Saves a lot of time.

Another recommendation for QR for Cortana. Pinned to your start screen, it's the same number of clicks as the old search button method.

Well I think the OP will obviously pin it.....the app itself creates a shorcut..and therefore. The pin option is what he will see first....

Thanks guys but I think so something is wrong wid my phone
When I select the lens option it is showing option to add more lens from the store whereas I have almost all the Lumia photography apps also after using the qr for Cortana the same page turns up where it gives link to add more lens
So inshort Bing vision has all together lost somewhere

And one more problem in store it shows that I have installed Lumia cinemography app but in the app list its not visible

Ms must put an app for qr or enable us to make a shortcut
