Settings

What people see when they scan

There is no landing page. The phone opens its default email app with a new email to your address, your subject and your message. Nothing is sent until the person taps send. The code goes through a GetQR short link, so you can change the address or text after printing. Every scan is counted in your statistics.
Keep the message short. A long pre-filled email is hard to read on a phone screen.

Use cases

  • Support requests: pre-fill the subject with a product or order reference.
  • Event RSVPs and sign-ups.
  • Quote or booking requests from printed flyers.
  • Feedback from staff or students, sent to a shared inbox.

Common issues

Recipient email is empty. Enter the address that should receive the emails.
Check the address for typos, spaces and a missing @ or domain, for example [email protected].
Shorten the text in Message.
The phone has no email app set up. Ask people to set up a mail app, or use a Website QR code that links to a contact form instead.
