What a Text code does

A text code carries plain text: a message, a serial number, a bin location, a set of instructions. The phone shows it on screen.

Nothing is looked up, so it works in basements, warehouses and anywhere else without a connection.

Questions

Is the text QR code generator free?
Yes. Type the text, style the code and download a PNG or SVG. No account needed.
How much text can a QR code hold?
Up to 2,000 characters here. The more text, the denser the code, so it needs printing larger.
Does the phone need internet to read it?
No. The text is in the code itself and shows on screen without a connection.
Can I edit the text after printing?
Not on a static code. A dynamic code opens a page with the text, which you can edit.
