Common QR code mistakes
Not testing before printing
Always scan the QR code with a phone before printing or publishing it. A typo or broken link can make the code useless.
Making the QR code too small
Very small QR codes can be hard to scan, especially on posters, menus, labels or low-quality prints.
Using too much data
Longer content creates more complex QR codes. For printed materials, a short URL usually scans better than a very long one.
