What a Location QR code is for
-
Hard-to-find venues
Interior patios, second floors, industrial estates: the pin lands people at the right door, not at the street sign.
-
Event invitations
On the wedding or party invite, one scan opens the venue with directions from wherever each guest is.
-
Deliveries and pickups
Warehouse docks and pickup points with tricky access: print the code on the confirmation email.
-
Business cards
Next to the vCard code, a location code answers the second question everyone asks: where are you?
The map link travels inside the code
The code stores your Google Maps share link. On scan, the phone opens it in the maps app (or the browser) with your pin already centred.
It is a static code: the destination is engraved in the pattern and works forever, with no server of ours in between.
Location QR code questions
Where do I get the Maps link?
Open your place in Google Maps, press Share and copy the link. Paste it in the form and the preview updates.
Does it work with Apple Maps?
The Google link opens on any phone; iPhones open it in the browser or the Google Maps app if installed.
These questions do not depend on the code type, and they are worth reading before sending anything to print: what size to print a QR code at , why a heavily customised code stops scanning and how static and dynamic codes differ .
