Troubleshooting

Why isn't my QR code scanning properly?

  • Ensure there's enough contrast between foreground and background colors

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a limit to how much text I can encode?

Yes, QR codes have capacity limits based on their size and error correction level. We recommend keeping URLs under 300 characters and text content under 500 characters for reliable scanning.
