FAQ:
- Q: Can I use this feature without an internet connection?
- A: As long as the end-user has the internet on their smartphone they will be able to scan the QR Code. If you don't have an internet connection, the photo will stay pending in the queue until you will connect to a network. If you are expecting internet problems, we recommend enabling the timer to trigger the next state as well.
- Q: Can a few people scan the QR Code and share it at the same time?
- A: Yes, but only if you have an internet connection. If not, just one entry will be added and fetched.
That's it! Simple and amazing, as we like it!
