SMS QR code questions

Does the message send automatically?

No. The phone opens a new message with everything filled in, and the person taps send.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. Both open the default messages app.

Does an SMS QR code expire?

A Locked code never expires, because everything is stored inside the image. An Editable code has no renewal fee and keeps working. Only a free QR stops, 2 days after download.

Is it free?

You can make any QR free, valid for 2 days. To keep a code, pay once: Locked $4.99 stores everything inside the code forever, and Editable $7.99 lets you change it later and see scans. No subscription and no account.

What is the difference between Locked and Editable?

Locked puts the data inside the image. It never expires but can never change, and scans are not counted. Editable points to a link we host, so you can change it any time with your linked email and see scan stats.
