WeChat Discovery Tab- Scan


We are still exploring the Discovery tab in WeChat, a space where you can view content and connect with other users. WeChat stands out for its innovation, particularly its scanning and QR code features. Scanning opens many possibilities, from translating text and discovering items to connecting with new friends.

How to scan

First, to get to this option, follow the steps:

1. Open WeChat and choose one of the primary tabs: discover, contacts, or chats.

2. Press the plus sign on the right side of the screen and then select scan. Now, let’s explore the exciting possibilities of scanning:

Payment

If you have a WeChat wallet, the scanning feature allows you to make payments seamlessly. Whether settling bills in China, shopping at the local supermarket, or making purchases at various stores or online platforms, all you need is a Chinese bank account or an international credit card. If you own a company abroad with products and have Chinese visitors, you must enable payment with a wechat wallet.

Scanning a code

QR codes open up a world of opportunities. You can access payment links or official WeChat accounts by scanning a QR code. For instance, scanning the QR code of a Chinese book directed me to the book publishing official account blog.

Search for items

Have you ever been curious about a product? The scanning feature covers you, whether it’s flowers, cars, products, wines, or food. Swiftly switch to the “Item” option, scan the item, and receive comprehensive information, including articles and ratings. Try it out by scanning an unfamiliar toy or flower – you might discover where to buy it!

Translate

The scanning feature is your instant translator. Shift right, press “Translate,” and watch the text on your screen transform into the language of your choice. It’s a quick and handy tool for breaking down language barriers. Give it a try with any words you’d like to translate. Scan, translate, and explore the power of communication!


In conclusion, WeChat’s scanning feature opens up a world of possibilities, allowing you to seamlessly translate text, search for items, make payments, and much more. The next lesson will focus on two cool features within the Discover and Search tab that enhance your WeChat experience.
