Questions

Your questions, answered.

How do I make a QR code that opens a Google Doc?

In Google Docs, click Share and copy the document link. Paste it into Reqlick and generate the QR code. Anyone who scans it opens the document in their phone's browser. Print the code on meeting handouts, classroom worksheets, or bulletin boards, or add it to a slide so the audience can follow along on their phones.

Why do people see "request access" after scanning my Google Doc QR code?

The QR code works, but Google is blocking the viewer. Reqlick only sends people to the document, and your Google Docs sharing settings decide who can view or edit it. Set general access to "Anyone with the link" if the doc is meant for everyone who scans. Keep it restricted for internal documents.

Can I see how many people opened my Google Doc from the QR code?

Reqlick counts scans and unique visitors on your Google Doc QR code, with times, locations, and devices such as iPhone or Android. That tells you how many people opened the doc through the code. Opens from other routes, like a link in an email, are not included. Use a separate code per handout or poster to compare them.

Can I reuse the same Google Doc QR code for next term's document?

Yes. Reqlick lets you swap the Google Doc URL behind the code, so a printed poster can point to next term's version. Starter covers 50 QR codes for $15 a month, Pro covers 300, and Business covers 3,000. Scan history lasts 90 days on Starter and 1 year on Pro.

Print the code once. Change where it points any time.
