A QR code turns a passive screen into a call to action. Type any URL or text and the code renders as crisp vector graphics with your colours, at whatever size people need to scan it from where they stand.
What it does
- Any URL, text or vCard payload
- Custom foreground and background colours, optional margin
- Vector rendering — sharp at any size
- Pairs well with the Text element for a 'Scan to…' headline

Frequently asked questions
How big should a QR code be on a TV?
Rule of thumb: the code should be at least one tenth of the distance from which people scan it — about 30 cm wide for scanning from 3 m.
