QR Pigeon FAQ

FAQ Banner

What is the purpose of this site?

QR Pigeon allows you to easily upload and share files using a QR code. It's designed for quick and convenient file transfers.

What are the file size restrictions?

Each file must be no larger than 16MB.

What file types are allowed?

We currently support image files (JPEG, PNG, GIF, HEIC, WEBP, SVG) and PDF documents.

How does the reset session button work?

The Reset Session button clears all uploaded files and resets the session to get a new one assigned (a.k.a hire a new pigeon 😅). Remember that your images get stored only for 5 minutes?

How do sessions work?

Sessions are managed by unique IDs assigned via cookies. Files are automatically deleted if they are older than 5 minutes to ensure privacy and security.

What happens to files after the session ends?

All files are automatically deleted after they are 5 minutes old, even if you are currently on an active session. We don't and will never keep any of your files 😁
