Frequently asked questions
Is there a length limit for the text?
The QR code itself only encodes a short link, so the text can be far longer than a plain text QR code would allow without becoming unreadable.
Can people copy the text?
Yes. The scan page shows the text with a one-tap copy button.
Does the text QR code expire?
No. Free QR codes on Codes Dance never expire.
Need more than 5 QR codes, or scan analytics?
Free accounts include 5 QR codes that never expire. Pro removes the limit and shows who scanned each code: counts, unique visitors, countries and cities, devices, and best times.
