What is a Event QR code?
An event QR code holds a calendar event in the standard iCalendar (VEVENT) format, including the title, start and end times, location, and a description. Scanning it lets someone add the event to their phone calendar in one step, so the date, time, and place are saved correctly without any manual typing.
How Event QR codes work in Crafty QR
Static or dynamicA static event QR code writes the full calendar entry into the pattern, so any camera can add it and the code works offline and never expires. The entry follows the iCalendar standard, so it drops into Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, Outlook, and others. You can also make it dynamic, which encodes a short craftyqr.com/r/ link that opens a Crafty QR page with an add to calendar button and records each scan, so you can adjust the details later or see how many people saved the event.
