Contactless Technology is Transforming Industries
QR Codes Australia started developing QR Codes in 2011. Australia has a 90% mobile phone penetration. QR Code usage has rapidly grown in the region simultaneously.
The COVID-19 pandemic has kick started the usage of QR Codes in top industry verticals – restaurants, retail, and even hotels. QR Codes were already popular. The contactless technology and convenience it promotes have somersaulted its usage in recent months.
What is a QR Code?
QR Codes serve as a dynamic redirection tool, similar to a URL shortener like Bitly — but in a scannable graphic format. By embedding a URL, a QR Code seamlessly directs users to a specific destination with just a quick scan. Beyond simple redirection, QR Codes can also store contact details or text, enabling instant access to key information and effortless data sharing.
How to Scan a QR Code?
Using your camera and a QR code scanner on your mobile device, it’s easy to scan a code to download an app or go to a website — a bit too easy, some might say. What if the QR code is for a malicious app, or takes you to a dangerous website? How would you know before it’s too late?
QR Codes Australia recommends below QR scanners:
Trend Micro’s free QR Scanner for Android (and its equivalent in Trend Micro Mobile Security for iOS), lets you scan QR codes easily and safely, performing high quality URL safety checks on all the codes that you scan.
Since QR Codes can send you to dangerous places, we recommend you to use the Kaspersky QR Code scanner which will protect you from bad sites.
Another good one is Australia is by Trend Micro.
How to Decorate a QR Code?

QR Codes Australia strongly recommends enhancing your QR Code using design software such as Photoshop or an online editor like Pixlr. This approach allows for future adjustments or updates as needed. While many QR Code generators offer customization during the creation process, modifications cannot be made once the code is finalized.
