QR Web Loader is a homebrew application that allows you to download and install 3DS .cia files at the same time.
It will download and install whatever file you make a QR code link for. You can make QR codes from CTRLQ.org or any other site or phone app that produces standard QR codes.
Note: Deprecated. FBI >= 2.2.1 can now handle QR installs natively.
Installation
Install the .cia with a CIA manager of your choice.
If you have a previous version of QR Web Loader, you can upgrade by scanning this QR block with the old version.
User guide
Point CAM1 (rear facing, right side) at a QR code containing the URL of the .cia you would like to install.
Usually about 9" away works well for a QR of normal size, but your device may differ.
The QR code must contain only the URL, which must be accessible via a standard HTTP or HTTPS GET.
Github release file links work as expected, as will any other website where you can get a direct link to the file that doesn't go through a splash page that requires javascript.
Direct download and install from Mega.nz is now also supported, just make a QR code with a direct .cia file link. Support for folders isn't yet implemented.
