My QR code won't scan

Updated 28 July 2026

Common causes, easiest first:

  • The printed code is too small. Print it at least 2 cm wide.
  • There's glare from a laminated surface or a light overhead — move or matt-laminate it.
  • The code is damaged, smudged, or partly covered.
  • The print quality is too low, or it was scaled down after printing.

Download a fresh code from the QR Codes screen and test a printed sample with two different phones before doing a large print run.
