FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does a text QR code need internet?

No. The text is encoded in the pattern, so a phone camera shows it offline.

How long can the text be?

Up to 300 characters. Longer text makes the code denser and harder to scan; for long content, link to a page with a URL QR code.

Can I edit the text later?

No. Text QR codes are static. Create a new code to change the text.

Can I make a QR code with a love message?

Yes. Write the message, then customize the colors and frame, for example red dots and a “Scan me” frame.
