Calendar event QR codes: the facts
- What the code holds
- A calendar event (BEGIN:VEVENT) with the title, place, start and end. Times are written as local clock time with no time zone, so the event shows at the same clock time on every phone.
- Print size
- 1 in on invitations and tickets, 2 in on flyers, 4 in on posters.
- Scan distance
- In hand for invitations; 3 to 6 ft for posters.
- What breaks it
- Long descriptions make the code dense, so keep to title, place and times. Calendar codes cannot change after printing; for an event whose details may move, use a dynamic link to the event page instead.
Questions
Do iPhones and Android phones add the event?
Yes. Current iPhone cameras and Google Lens on Android recognise the event and offer to add it to the calendar.
What if guests are in another time zone?
The event is written in local clock time, so a 6 pm event shows as 6 pm on every phone. That suits in-person events; for an online event across time zones, link to the event page instead.
Is a Calendar event QR code static or dynamic?
Static. A calendar event code holds the information itself, so it works with no internet connection and without us, but it cannot be edited after printing.
Can my Calendar event QR code look like art?
Yes. We paint it in a style you choose, then test it with three decoders under 16 print and phone conditions before you can download it.
Does it expire?
Free static codes never expire. Dynamic codes keep redirecting to your last link even if you cancel your plan.
