Guide: Location

September 23, 2024

Step-by-Step Guide for Creating an QR code for your Location:

1) After logging into your ConnectQR account, click on “Create QR” and then choose between “Dynamic QR” or “Static QR”. For now we’ll select “Location” under “Dynamic QR”.

2) Pick a name for your new QR code and enter it into the “Name Your QR” box. Add a name for your QR code for future reference. Add tags for your new code in the “Tags” box. These tags help you search for QR codes and others like it in the future.

3) Now you need to add the location by clicking on the “Search your location” field and entering the location name. It will take a second to populate but once it does, you can simply choose your location. If it doesn’t appear in the selections, you can manually enter coordinates in the “Latitude,Longitude” field below. Remember to add a ‘,’ between your coordinates.

4) Done! You can now download the QR code in the file format of your choice (JPG, SVG, PNG) and use it immediately. Click on “Access My ConnectQR” edit or check the analytics for your new dynamic QR code!

5) You can continue to customise your QR code by choosing between “Customise QR Code” and “AI QR Code” under the “Additional Options” heading. If you select “Customise QR Code”, you can customise your QR code’s appearance and even add your logo to it. Our “AI QR Code” feature allows you to use AI tools to create a truly unique QR code quickly and it is available to paid subscribers only.

Things to Keep in Mind:

If your location didn’t appear in the search, make sure you correctly enter the latitude and longitude so that it generates the pin in the correct location. You can easily edit a dynamic QR code’s details but a static QR code cannot be changed once it has been generated.
QR code readability can affect its performance so make sure that you use appropriate colours. A good rule of thumb is to use dark colours for your QR code pattern and a light colour for the background so they are easily distinguishable by both people and cameras.
QR code size is another factor that can affect performance greatly because if it is too small, scanners will not pick it up easily. The minimum QR code size for printed QR codes should be 1 inch (2.54 cm).
