We've just released version 12.6 that includes a fix for the QR scanner.

Please update the version using the App Store.

Do not require any other third party app for scan QR Code. because iOS 11 built-in feature to scan QR Code with iPhone camera app is a big advantage of iOS 11. The feature will active by default.
