Are there any alternatives to QR code?

Which is the best QR code generator for creating a QR code to contact info that can be easily saved to contacts?

  • I have used many QR code generators but I'm looking for the best free generator that allows multiple fields of contact info in one code - minimum of three, which would include phone, email and a website link.  AND when scanned it should easily allow that info to be added to a person's contacts (not email VCard). Also saving to contacts should work on all apple & android devices, at the very least. It should also allow one to save to contacts regardless of which QR code app scans the code.

    The ZXing generator sounds perfect for you. http://zxing.appspot.com/generator/

I would like to inform you about my app Card Swapp.  You can change your info any time and your QR image will not change.  Also, when you change your information, all of your contacts will receive the updated information as well.  I do not recommend that you use the vCard format in your QR code since some QR generators loosely follow the vCard format, which results in the QR scanner not being able to save your information. itunes:  http://itunes.apple.com/jo/app/card-swapp-lite-qr-business/id457416466?mt=8 Android: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.biztoqr.biztoqrlite&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5iaXp0b3FyLmJpenRvcXJsaXRlIl0. http://CardSwapp.com .

I started using QR codes last year and tried several online generators. After a lot of trial and error I have decided to make http://www.esponce.com my main QR code site. Although others offer a similar product Esponce just does things that little bit better. They also have a great QR code reader app for all platforms. Works perfectly when scanning vCards and a lot more besides.
