Prepare a text message for the visitor to send

An SMS QR contains a recipient and optional message. The receiving scanner and messaging app decide how to present that content.

Create and check it

  1. Enter the full destination number with country code.
  2. Add a short message if appropriate; do not put private data in a shared code.
  3. Scan on the intended phone, check the recipient and message, and confirm that it opens a draft rather than expecting automatic delivery.

SMSTO:+12025550123:Please send me the opening hours.

This tool does not send messages, subscribe recipients, or confirm delivery. Compatibility can differ between scanning apps, so test this action on your actual devices.

Troubleshooting this QR type

The message opens without the body
Try the native scanner and messaging app; support for payload actions varies.
A user cannot send the message
Check the phone’s messaging service separately. QR decoding cannot establish message delivery.
