Static versus dynamic
A static QR code contains its destination directly. It works without our servers, but you cannot edit the destination or view scan analytics later.

This is a static QR code.Its destination cannot be changed after download, and SimpleTaskKit does not collect scan data.
Export for screen or print
Use PNG in slides, email, and documents. Use SVG when a printer, designer, sign maker, or packaging workflow needs a code that stays crisp at any size.
Scanning has physical limits
Test the final code at its real printed size and expected scanning distance. Preserve the quiet zone, use strong contrast, and test multiple phones before publishing.
Common static QR code uses
Menus and signs
Link visitors to a stable menu, booking page, map, or event page. Reprint the code if the destination changes.
Business cards
Open a profile or company page without requiring a scan-tracking account. Keep the printed code large enough to test comfortably.
Packaging and instructions
Connect physical material to a durable support page, setup guide, or product information page.
Static QR questions
What is the difference between a static and dynamic QR code?
A static QR stores its destination in the image. A dynamic QR usually points to a managed redirect that can change later and may collect scan analytics.
Should I export QR codes as PNG or SVG?
PNG is convenient for screens and documents. SVG stays sharp when a QR code is enlarged for print, signage, or packaging.
Why might a QR code fail to scan?
Low contrast, a missing quiet zone, excessive logo coverage, a dense payload, poor print quality, or testing from too far away can prevent reliable scanning.
