QR code technology is taking off, and it’s about time that people understood and took advantage of the full potential of these handy two-dimensional codes. While many people think that QR codes can only be used to open a web page – and in many cases this is their primary use – there are actually a variety of things that can happen when someone scans a QR code.
QR codes can also be used to:
• Send an SMS message
• Capture text
• Start a phone call
• Send email
• Add a contact to your contacts list
• Find a spot on a map
• Open an audio file
• Watch a video
And more!
QR codes are far from being just limited to opening webpages. Think of them as real-world hyperlinks. They can do virtually anything that a link on a computer can do! It stands to reason that the possibilities of QR codes is huge… just as links can do a variety of things online, so can QR codes do a variety of things “offline.”
Explore the many possibilities of QR codes and see how they can benefit your business – you’ll be surprised at how versatile the technology is.
