Profile, cards and sharing

Share your card with a QR code and scan QR codes

With your QR code, people can send you a request even if you can’t hold your iPhones together.

  1. Show your QR code
  2. Create a new QR code
  3. Scan a QR code

Show your QR code

  1. Tap You, then QR Code below the picture.
  2. The other person scans it with their camera.

Anyone who has Nodbase sends you a request this way. You confirm it under Requests. Without Nodbase, the code opens a page on nodbase.app that leads to the download. Once the person has Nodbase, they scan the code again.

If you have several profiles, choose at the top which profile the code shows.

Create a new QR code

If your code ended up somewhere it shouldn’t be, tap Create New QR Code. The old code then no longer opens anything, even if it was printed or saved.

Scan a QR code

There’s no separate scan button. The camera in Nodbase recognizes codes by itself:

  1. Tap Camera at the bottom.
  2. Point the camera at the code in photo mode.
  3. A hint appears at the top, for example Nodbase profile. Tap it.

A Nodbase code opens the person’s card. For a contact, you can choose Add to my network or Save to Contacts, and for a link, Open.

Nodbase also recognizes a photo with a QR code from your Library.
