Question 6

What is the Difference Between Static and Dynamic QR Codes?

Accepted Answer

The biggest difference is that static QR codes can’t be changed, while dynamic QR codes can. When you use a static code, you must generate a new QR code if you need to change the content or link destination. My QR Code, on the other hand, generates dynamic QR codes. With dynamic QR codes, linked content can be changed at any time, without having to change the QR code you’re using. Dynamic codes are especially useful for businesses, where business pages and content are updated regularly.

Question 7

Can I Make Custom QR Codes?

Accepted Answer

It’s easy to generate custom QR Codes with My QR Code’s QR Code Generator. Almost every aspect of your QR code can be customized. You can select between six unique QR code patterns, corner squares, and borders. Plus, you can tweak colors to match your brand aesthetics and add your logo for extra personalization.

Question 8

Can I Edit my QR Codes?

Accepted Answer

My QR Code allows you to edit your QR codes because we use a Dynamic QR code generator. That means that you can change link destinations and update your content whenever you need to, without having to print out another QR code. Dynamic codes are among the most popular QR codes out there, with 6.8 million scans in the first 3 months of 2024 alone, making them indispensable for businesses who want to reach as many people as possible.

Question 9

How Many QR Codes can I Generate on My QR Code?

Accepted Answer

My QR Code’s full access plans allow you to generate unlimited QR codes with unlimited scans. However, with the most basic plan, you’ll have 14-day limited access, which allows you to create one QR code only. Our AI QR Code Generator also allows you to generate unlimited static AI art QR codes, completely free of charge.

Question 10

What is the Best QR Code File Format?

Accepted Answer

My QR Code QR codes can be generated as a PNG, JPG image, or SVG graphics file formats. The type of QR code file format you use will depend on your tools and what you need the QR code for. SVG is a vector format which is appropriate for printing and web use and which scales perfectly, but not all software supports the SVG format. PNG and JPG images have a wide-range of applications, especially if you are embedding the QR code on a web page. If you are printing your QR codes, the SVG vector format can guarantee a high quality print.

Question 11

How do I Scan a QR Code?

Accepted Answer

All My QR Code QR codes can be scanned by any Android or iOS device that has a QR code reader built into the camera or installed as an application. Tablets and laptops can also scan QR codes with the appropriate software. If your smartphone or computer doesn’t have a QR code reader, you can download an app that will enable your device to read QR codes.

Question 12

What is the Smallest a QR Code can be for Printing?

Accepted Answer

The smallest QR code for print would be no less than 1 cm x 1 cm, which is equivalent to 10 mm x 10 mm, 0.4 inches x 0.4 inches, and 38 pixels x 38 pixels. Some QR code scanners may not be able to read codes if they don’t meet minimum QR code size requirements. The distance between the code and the scanner also affects acceptable code sizes. It’s always a good idea to test your code by scanning it before you print a large number of copies.

Question 13

What is the Best Format for QR Codes?

Accepted Answer

If you’re printing QR codes, you’ll get better results if you export the image in SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format. This vector format scales well and you won’t lose image quality when the code is enlarged, which often happens with JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group format) and other image formats.

Question 14

What is the Best Format for Web-Based QR Codes?

Accepted Answer

For QR codes displayed on the web (for example, in an email, on a website or mobile app), the best format is PNG (Portable Network Graphics) or JPG (Joint Photographics Expert Group) format. Both image formats load much quicker than the aforementioned SVG format, which means that your web pages shouldn’t suffer drawbacks to your page load times. Additionally, PNG and JPG images are widely supported amongst many popular CMSs (Content Management Systems), like WordPress, Wix, and Webflow.

Question 15

How to Get a QR Code for a Website?

Accepted Answer

You can generate a variety of QR codes for websites and social media with My QR Code’s generator, including PDF, link, vCard, Facebook, and many others.

Question 16
