Do they still exist? In China and Malaysia where I’ve been living for the last 10 years there are only QR codes at the items that you can scan with the IKEA app.

If you don’t want to install the app, all you can do is take photos of the labels, or bring your own pens.

Still exist in UK as of last year, short wooden pencils stacked in a plastic cube, free for as many as you can take before security gets angy

Yeah that’s what I’m used to from Germany as well, but seems like they either never implemented it in Asia, or got rid of it a long time ago.

They certainly exist in Ikea here in the Philippines. I’ve been there a few months ago and the free pencils and paper tape measures (rulers?) are still there and being used.
