Museums and galleries put dynamic QR codes on labels and panels to open audio guides, translations and extra content, and can update that content as exhibitions change without remaking the labels.

Labels outlast exhibitions
Permanent galleries keep their labels for years, and touring exhibitions reuse panels. Dynamic codes let you refresh what each label opens: a new audio track, an updated translation, or a page that explains the object has moved.
Ideas
Audio guides: each label opens its track.
Translations: open a page that offers several languages.
Accessibility: large-print or British Sign Language versions.
Feedback: a code by the exit for visitor surveys.
Tips
Mount codes at a comfortable height, around 1.2–1.5 m, and away from glare.
Make them big enough, at least 3 cm on labels read from arm’s length.
Use your own domain, like guide.yourmuseum.org, so codes are clearly yours and can move with you.
Frequently asked questions
Can I change what a label’s QR code opens?
Yes. Each dynamic code’s destination can be changed at any time, and the label opens the new page within about a minute.
Are there scan limits for busy galleries?
No. Scans are unlimited on every pack.
Will the codes still work in ten years?
Paid codes aren’t switched off for non-payment or inactivity. Codes on your own domain can keep working even without us, using your export.
