What Are Some Common Design Mistakes To Avoid?

Updated over 2 months ago

When designing your QR code, avoid mistakes that can make it difficult or impossible to scan:

  1. Poor Color Contrast – Ensure the QR code body contrasts clearly with the background.

  2. Cluttered Design – Avoid adding too many elements or decorations that interfere with scanning.

  3. Improper Logo Placement or Size – Make sure the logo does not obscure the QR code modules; keep it proportionate.

  4. Unreadable CTA Text – Use a clear, legible font for any call-to-action text.

  5. Excessive Effects – Avoid gradients, shadows, or other effects that distort the QR code’s pattern.

Following these guidelines helps ensure your QR code remains scannable and functional across all devices and materials.
