Questions
What happens when someone scans a text QR code?
Their phone shows the text on screen. Most camera apps let them copy it or search for it.
Do text QR codes need internet to scan?
No. The text is stored in the code, so it can be read offline.
How much text can a QR code hold?
QR codes can hold a few thousand characters, but long text makes the code dense and hard to scan. Keep it short for codes that will be printed small.
Can I use emoji or non-English characters?
Text is encoded as UTF-8, which covers most languages. Test the code with your own phone to confirm it displays as expected.
Is my text stored anywhere?
The code is generated in your browser, so your text stays on your device. Recent codes are saved locally so you can find them later.
