The service is constantly being improved: we add new scenarios, make notifications more accessible, and expand the capabilities of QR codes. Below are the main stages of development and implementation of key functions
Stages of growth
Launch of the project and the first mobile application in the Apple Store
Started with a simple idea - to give the ability to quickly notify a person without calls, applications and complex forms. The first mobile app in the Apple Store became the foundation of the QR notification ecosystem and showed high interest from users
Sending notifications via the QR code page URL
As part of the service evolution, introduced the ability to send notifications by opening the QR code page URL. This allows notifications to be sent without installing the mobile application
QR Code Activity Tracking Page
The QR code page URL now includes a Live section - a real-time view of activity and notification statistics. All events for the QR code are displayed online without the need to refresh the page
