QR Code Vcards - iPhone read problem
I created a QR Code for a VCard: Andriod smartphones can read it and add to the contacts, whereas the iPhone standard camera can't read them.
Are there more hidden items to add for making it work?
(If it were to be a discriminating factor, the problem was found on Italian iPhones)

Give this tool a try, it exports qr codes with data merge source file for vcards and other types:

Vcard QR-Codes made with latest Indesign version (20.03.2023) often do not work with iPhone / iOS devices.
Error on iPhone (German): "Keine nutzbaren Daten gefunden" / : No usable data foundWhile android phones are always able to scan those "faulty" QR-codes.
This error also happens if there are no umlauts in the vacard fields.If one produces 1.000 vcard qr-codes and 10 of them will not work,
it is not possible to find out which of them are faulty until scanning them one by one with iPhone.Adobe please fix / update Indesigns V-Card 2.1 version to 3.0 or even better: 4.0!
Thank you!!!
