Frequently Asked Questions
How much text can a QR code hold?
A standard QR code can hold up to about 2,000 characters of text. The more text, the denser and larger the QR code needs to be for reliable scanning.
Can I use emoji or special characters?
QR codes support most text characters. However, for best compatibility across devices, stick to standard letters, numbers, and common punctuation.
Is the text encrypted in the QR code?
No. Anyone who scans the QR code can read the text. Do not encode sensitive information like passwords or personal data in a text QR code.
