About the text QR code
A plain-text QR code stores raw characters rather than a link, so scanning it simply displays the text instead of opening anything. That makes it handy for notes on equipment, product serials, event codes, or a short message printed on packaging. It supports full Unicode - emoji, accents and non-Latin scripts survive the scan thanks to proper UTF-8 encoding. Everything runs in your browser, the code is static so it never expires, and you can style and export it just like any other QR.
Frequently Asked Questions
Their scanner or camera app shows the exact text you encoded. Unlike a URL code it does not open a website - it just displays the message, which is what you want for notes, codes or serials.
Yes. The encoder uses proper UTF-8, so emoji, accented letters and scripts like Cyrillic, Arabic or CJK are preserved and display correctly when scanned.
