## Tips[​](#tips "Direct link to Tips")

* Use the **Large** or **X-Large** size for QR codes that will be scanned from a distance (e.g., printed pages, posters)
* Encode URLs with the full `https://` prefix for best scanning results
* Keep the encoded text short — shorter content produces cleaner, easier-to-scan QR codes
