Frequently asked questions

MeCard is a simpler, older format primarily for basic contact info (name, phone, email, address). RecodeQR creates MeCards as static codes only. vCard supports more detailed information (company, job title, website, notes) and can be created as a dynamic code with RecodeQR, allowing updates.

It can result in a slightly less complex QR code pattern, which might scan marginally better if printed very small. It's suitable if you only need to share the absolute basic contact details and don't need the ability to update them later.

No. MeCard QR codes created with RecodeQR are static. The contact information is embedded directly into the code and cannot be changed after creation. You would need to generate a new code if details change.

Yes, most smartphone camera apps and QR scanner apps recognize the MeCard format and will prompt the user to add the contact information.
