 ===== Limitations =====
-  * **Contact Card Profile Photo** - this feature is a way to embed an image to use as a contact's profile photo, but it greatly increases the size of the QR code. In practice a QR code can only encode about 2Kb of data, so only very small images can be embedded.
   * **Static QR codes** - This site generates static QR codes and provides no usage details or reports. Paid services often include reports about how many people have used the QR code and their location, which is only possible when using a dynamic QR code with a managed service.
