QR Code Scan Alerts and the Weekly Scan Report
Updated
QRelix tells you what your QR codes are doing without a login: an alert when a code is first scanned, when its scans spike, and when it goes quiet, plus a weekly scan report every Monday. They are included on every plan, by email and as push notifications in the QRelix iPhone app. Alerts go to the person who created the code.
What you can get
- Weekly scan report. Every Monday: last week's scans with the change from the week before, a day-by-day chart, your top five QR codes, top countries and devices, and codes with no scans that week. Weeks with no scans at all are skipped.
- First scan. The moment a new QR code is scanned for the first time, with when, where, and on what device.
- Scan milestones. On Pro and Team, when a QR code reaches 10, 20, and 50 scans in a month. The first scan setting controls these too.
- Scan spikes. When a QR code gets at least three times its usual daily scans, and at least 25 in a day, so you can check the page it opens is ready.
- Quiet QR codes. Off by default. Turn it on to hear when a code that was getting scanned has had none for 7, 14, or 30 days.
- Fair use notices. On the Free plan, one email when a code passes 100 scans in a month. The code keeps working. See Billing & Subscription.
Turn alerts on or off
Everything except quiet code alerts starts on. Change any of them under Settings → Email preferences. Every email also has a Turn off link that switches off just that email.
You get at most three of each alert a day, and one quiet code alert; the weekly report covers the rest.
