❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Is my data stored?
No, all QR codes are generated directly in your browser. No data is transmitted to or stored on our servers.
How many characters can a QR code store?
This depends on the data type: Numeric (7,089), Alphanumeric (4,296), Binary/UTF-8 (2,953 bytes). The more data, the more complex the QR code becomes.
Why isn't my QR code being scanned?
Possible reasons: Too little contrast between colors, too complex content, too small logo or damaged print. Use higher resolutions and more contrasting colors.
Can I edit the QR code afterwards?
The content of a QR code cannot be changed. You must generate a new QR code with the updated content.
Which scanner apps do you recommend?
Most modern smartphones have a QR scanner integrated in the camera app. Alternatively, there are free apps like "QR Code Reader" or "Scanbot".
