About text QR codes
A text QR code shows a message on the scanner's screen. It needs no internet connection and no website: the text is stored inside the code itself.
It suits short, fixed information like serial numbers, instructions or a hidden message. For anything longer than a few sentences, link to a page instead so the code stays easy to scan.
Popular uses
- Serial numbers and asset tags
- Instructions on equipment
- Scavenger hunts and puzzles
- Offline notes in places without signal
Tips for a reliable scan
- Keep it under 300 characters for codes that scan reliably from print.
- Plain text can't be tracked or edited after printing.
- Some scanner apps show text in a search bar. Say in the text what it is.
