Frequently Asked Questions
How does an email QR code work?
The QR code contains a mailto: link with the recipient address, subject, and body. When scanned, it opens the default email app on the phone with these fields pre-filled. The user just taps send.
Can I pre-fill the email subject and body?
Yes. You can set a default subject line and body text. The recipient can edit these before sending if they want to.
Does the recipient need a specific email app?
No. The QR code uses the standard mailto: protocol, which works with any email app — Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, or any other default mail client on the device.
Can I add CC or BCC addresses?
The basic email QR code supports the To address, Subject, and Body fields. For CC/BCC, you would need to include them manually in the mailto: string.
Is my email address exposed in the QR code?
Yes. The email address is encoded in the QR code. Anyone who scans it (or decodes the QR data) can see the recipient email address.
What is the maximum length for the email body?
While there is no hard limit, keep the body short. Longer text creates denser QR codes that are harder to scan. A few sentences work best.
