Frequently asked questions
How do I scan a Text QR code?
Open your phone camera, point at the QR. The plain text content appears after you tap the prompt.
How much text can a QR code hold?
Up to roughly 4,000 alphanumeric characters or 2,000 bytes, depending on the error correction level you choose.
Is there character encoding I should know about?
We encode in UTF-8 by default, so emoji and non-Latin scripts are supported.
Can I update the text after sharing?
No. The QR code encodes a static snapshot. Re-generate and re-share to update.
