No address, no app, nothing to open — the phone simply shows the text. Specimen · Level M Live — scan it and the phone shows the opening hours, nothing more. ## What happens when someone scans it The camera decodes it and shows the words, with an offer to copy or search them. Nothing is fetched and nothing opens — the note is the whole payload. ## What the code actually contains ``` Open Wed-Sun, 8-16. ``` Exactly what you typed, raw. There is no prefix and no convention — this is the container with nothing wrapped around it. ## How to make one 1. Type the note. 2. Cut it down — every character makes the grid denser. 3. Style it and check the preflight panel. 4. Export it at the size it will actually be read. ## Fields - `text` The note itself ## Length is the whole trade At level L Studio fits about 425 characters, at M about 331, and less at Q and H. Long notes make codes that look like static and need more printed size; short ones stay coarse and scan from across the room. ## If it should open something, use the right type Phones sometimes make a pasted address in a text code tappable, sometimes not. If you want a page opened, a number dialled or a contact saved, the dedicated types wrap the same text in the convention phones actually follow. ## Questions ### How much text fits? About 425 characters at level L, 331 at M. If you are anywhere near the limit the code will be dense; consider a URL to a page instead. ### Do line breaks survive? Yes. Formatting beyond that — bold, size, fonts — does not exist inside a QR code. ### Is the text private? No. Anyone who scans the code reads the note; there is no encryption. It is a label, not a lockbox.
