Frequently asked questions

No, it simply opens the user's SMS app with the destination number and draft message prepared for review.

No, you can provide just the phone number and let the sender type their own message.

Standard SMS QR formats typically only support a single recipient phone number reliably.

It defaults to the device's primary SMS application, such as Apple Messages or Android Messages.

Standard punctuation is fine, but complex emojis or special encoding might not parse correctly on all older devices.
