Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/guyzyl/whatsapp-contact-sync/issues/94

The website is currently hosted on GCP Run. That means that when no one is accessing the website the Docker container is taken down, and a new one is created when someone accesses the website.
In addition to that, the app is based whatsapp-api.js which uses a headless Chrome browser to function.

The combination of these two facts causes some sort of bug where after the container is launched, the QR isn't loaded and a reload to the page is required.

Can you try again and wait about 20 seconds? I just tried on whasync.com and it worked for me.
(If it doesn't comment here / email me and I'll send you a refund)
