## Private by design

Changes are made on your device, in memory. The original file is untouched and the new one is only created when you press the button.

## Good to know

Keep the code at least 20 mm wide and leave white space around it. Scan the printed result before you send it out.

## Questions

### Is the QR code static?

Yes. It contains your text or link directly, so it never expires.

### Can I style it?

Not here. For colours and logos, make it in a QR generator and add it with the Add image tool.
