Explain the destination beside the code

A printed checklist or discussion sheet may circulate beyond the person who received it. A QR code pointing to your Tap Tap Go profile can provide a route to your identity, related work and contact information. Label the destination so the reader knows why scanning would help. A mysterious square at the bottom of a page does not explain whether it opens a profile, downloads a file or starts another task.

Keep the paper useful on its own

The printed resource should still make sense without a phone. Include a title, an identifiable owner and enough context to understand its purpose. Test the code at the final printed size and check the destination from a recipient’s perspective. If the document contains private information, a public profile link does not make sharing the document itself appropriate. Review the content and distribution separately.

Imagine this

Hypothetical scenario

Imagine a facilitator handing out a public discussion worksheet. The sheet works during the session, while a labelled profile QR code lets participants later find the facilitator and related reading.

Make it practical.

Use this checklist as you read. Checks are not stored.
