Frequently asked questions
What happens when someone scans the code?
The phone’s camera recognizes a contact card and offers to save it. On iPhone and most Android phones, it opens a new contact already filled in with your details.
Are my details stored anywhere?
No. The code and the .vcf file are created in your browser, and nothing you type is sent to a server. The details are written inside the code itself, so anyone who scans it can read them.
Why does the code get denser as I type?
Every detail is stored in the code, so more text means more modules. Small dense codes are harder to scan when printed: keep the note short and print the code at least 2 cm (about 1 inch) wide.
Can I change my details after printing?
No. The details are part of the printed code. If your number or email changes, create a new code.
What is the .vcf file?
It’s the same contact card as a file (vCard 3.0). You can attach it to an email or import it into Outlook, Gmail, iCloud and most address books.
Do accents and other alphabets work?
Yes. Names and addresses are encoded in UTF-8, so accented letters and scripts such as Arabic, Chinese or Cyrillic are read correctly by modern phones.
