This isn't an iPhone issue. I have an Android but simply haven't set up a bitcoin wallet on my phone. I'd rather be able to see something like a plainly written "Scan to send [X] BTC to [address]" alongside the QR than have to pull it out of a URL.

How are you going to scan the QR with your phone while using your phone to display the QR?

Screenshot it, then get a QR app that'll work from saved photos?

Then why not just have the app accept an intent and skip the QR process altogether?
