Frequently asked questions

Does it work without internet on the scanner?

SMS itself doesn't need internet — the QR just opens the Messages app. The scanner needs SMS/cellular, not data.

Can I pre-fill the SMS body?

Yes — set a default message (e.g. "BOOK appointment") so scanners just tap Send.

Can I use it with an SMS shortcode?

Yes — enter the shortcode as the phone number (e.g. 12345). It works the same way.

Can I change the number after printing?

Yes — update the number from your dashboard. All printed QRs immediately route to the new number.

Which messaging apps does it open?

The default SMS app on the device — Apple Messages on iPhone, Google Messages on Android, or whatever the user has set as default.
