It allows iPhone or iPad users to register themselves to a cellular network by simply scanning a QR code. This was a feature that was exclusive to the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone XR and the new iPad Pro tablets. Now though, Apple is bringing the party to a new set of devices, namely the iPad Air and iPad mini.
