Is there a bug in the system? The option to create a variable does not appear. See step 22 [https://blog.thunkable.com/creating-a-qr-scanner-app-in-thunkable-x-c292479c5e9e](https://blog.thunkable.com/creating-a-qr-scanner-app-in-thunkable-x-c292479c5e9e)

I can’t create a variable to object.

Hi @shadowreaper12, which part are you having a hard time finding? Do my gifs show what you are having issues with?
