QR Codes have become more popular than the typical barcode, as the typical barcode can only hold a maximum of 20 digits, whereas the QR Code can hold up to 7,089 characters. To give you an idea, all the text and spaces in this article are only 1,190 characters. This makes the use and diversity of QR Codes much more appealing than the older technology used by the barcode.
The QR code shown here will take you to our website so you don’t have to type in the name www.applebyarts.com. I can also make a QR code to hold this entire article, with room to spare.
The affiliated software programs can also scan big QR codes, made up of 16 smaller QR codes. This technology will continue to grow and evolve, and we look forward to seeing what it can do for us next.
