User reviews
Good app, can configure QR img size and other settings, and support auto redirection after scanning. BUT, for some long web url, error says: "code length overflow. (8364>5352)". why set this limit? can fix it? thanks! 很好的APP,可以配置QR的大小,同时支持扫描自动跳转打开网址。 但是,对于超长网址,APP会提示错误网址长度超限,不生成QR码,为何要设置这个限制,是否可修复该问题?
