A QR code for presentation joining, not a generator for your own links

Two completely different things go by this name, so let us separate them in the first paragraph. One is a QR image you generate elsewhere and paste onto a slide you already own, pointing at a survey, a feedback form or your website. We do not make that, and there is no image file to download here at all. The other is a QR that is the door into a live session — scan it, type a name, and you are watching the talk in your browser. That second one is what this page is about, and it is the only way anyone other than you ever sees a deck.

Two kinds of QR code for a presentation — check which one you want

Two different things share this name, so decide in the next two sentences which one you are after. Kind one is a QR image you generate somewhere else and paste onto a slide you already own, pointing at a survey, a feedback form, your contact details or a Mentimeter link. We do not make that — there is no generator for arbitrary URLs here and no downloadable image file — so if that is the job, this is not your page.

Kind two is the join QR that our own scheduler produces for a single live session of yours: scan it, type a name, and you are watching the talk in your browser. Everything below is about kind two, which is also the only way anyone other than you ever sees a deck.

Where the join QR comes from

Schedule a talk with a date and you get three things for the same room: an eight-character code, a join link, and a QR. All three are tied to that one session and generated for you — there is nothing to configure and no third-party generator involved.

Be precise about how you use it. The QR lives on the session page, and you display it from there — on the room’s projector, your laptop or a phone. The product does not hand you a QR image file, so there is nothing to drop into a slide or a printed poster as though a download existed. You show the page; you do not save the picture.

What happens after someone scans it

From the attendee’s side it is about thirty seconds. Their camera app opens the link, the browser loads, they enter a display name, and they are in. There is no account, no app install and no lead form — the join captures a display name and nothing else, no email address, company or role.

If they arrive before you start, they land in a lobby that shows a live countdown to showtime and how many other people are already waiting. It moves them into the talk automatically when it begins, though honestly the hand-off takes a few seconds rather than being instant.

Use whichever fits the moment. The QR works when there is a screen in front of the room that people can point a phone at. The eight-character code is for reading aloud or typing by hand, and it is your fallback when a camera will not cooperate. The join link is for pasting into a chat message or your own calendar entry.

All three open the same session, none of them asks the attendee to install anything, and all three are distributed by you, by hand — the product sends nothing to anyone on your behalf.

What the QR does not do

The declines, stated plainly. It is not a generator for your own links, and there is no image file to download, so there is no way to place a scannable code inside one of your slides. It points at the room rather than at a specific question — a poll or quiz opens on the slide itself when you reach it, so nobody needs a separate code for one.

It is also a different thing from the permanent link a published deck gets: this QR is tied to a session, so outside a running one it opens a lobby rather than your slides. And nobody who scans it is ever contacted afterwards, because the product sends no mail of any kind: no reminder, no confirmation, no go-live alert.

What they get once they are through the door

The scan is worth it because of what is on the other side. Attendees receive the real animated deck rendered in their own browser and synced to your control — not a compressed video of your screen. Around it sits the room: public chat, a private one-to-one thread to you or your staff, an ordered raise-hand queue, optional mic and camera of their own, and one-click captions for the whole audience. Your laser, pen and highlighter marks land in the right place on their screen whatever size their display is.

Name the ceiling in the same breath. Raised hands carry no text, so there is no upvoting a question, there are no floating emoji reactions, and there is no recording of any of it — what happens in the room stays in the room and is not replayed later.

Questions, answered honestly

How do I make a QR code for a presentation?

If you mean a QR image to paste onto a slide that points at your website or a survey, we cannot help — there is no QR generator here for arbitrary links and no image file to download. If you mean a QR that lets people join your talk, you do not make it: schedule the session and one is generated for that room alongside a join code and a link.

Can someone scan a QR code to join a presentation?

Yes, and that is the primary way in. They scan with the normal camera app, the browser opens, they type a display name and they are in the room. No account, no download and no app. If the talk has not started yet they wait in a lobby with a countdown and are moved in automatically when it does.

Can I put the join QR on a printed poster or inside one of my slides?

Not from the product. The QR is drawn on the session page and there is no image file to download, so there is nothing to place in a slide, a poster file or a document — consistent with the fact that nothing at all leaves this product as a file. In practice you show the session page on whatever screen the room already has, and read the eight-character code aloud as the backup.

How do you use QR codes in presentations here?

The QR is not content inside your deck, it is the entrance to the session that plays your deck. Show it on the room's screen before you begin and keep the eight-character code visible for anyone whose camera will not cooperate. There is no way to place a scannable code inside a slide that points somewhere else.

Can the QR point to a form so the audience can send questions?

No. Polls and quizzes live on the slide itself rather than behind a separate QR, and there is no QR generator pointing at an external tool. Questions happen inside the room instead: everyone can type in public chat, any individual can open a private 1:1 thread with you or a colleague, and a raise-hand queue lets people ask for the floor out loud. Worth knowing the ceiling: hands carry no text and nothing gets upvoted, so chat is where the wording lives.

Will people who scan the QR be reminded when the talk starts?

No. The product has no mail transport at all, so it never sends a reminder, a confirmation or a go-live alert to anyone, and there is no notification of any kind. Anyone who scans early simply waits in the lobby with the countdown running until you begin, so hand the code or QR out yourself, close to the time, through whatever channel you already use.

Build the deck, then present it live.

Free to start. Your audience joins with a code — no account, no install.
