@imthehumanoid And actually, it's the simplest and most brilliant design. A Muvo 100. Basically a USB stick with a soundcard and a headphone jack, run by a single AAA battery. No ads, no upgrades... And still works many years later.

🚾 The use of QR-code-as-menu is bad for several reasons:

🚫Don't create burdens for your customer.
🚫Don't use tools that put customers at risk or require they vet your lazy use of a gimmick.
🚫Don't allow tech dorx to mine customer data with a "virtual menu" hosted on quikmenu.ai.biz.xyz.blah

🏆🏆🏆 Here is a good use of a QR code:

When attending a play, a theatre hands you a small, printed, business-card-size show program with logo and basic details about the show.

Scanning the QR code on the card opens a full size show program. 🎶🎭🎨

✔️The show's program is hosted on the theatre's website.

✔️The full URL is printed alongside the QR code.

✔️The URL remains active as long as the theatre exists.

✔️Patrons may download a PDF of the full program.

🔸You trust the source.
🔸The physical card is a souvenir.
🔸Save $$$ / environment by not printing large full color programs.
🔸Can add much more info to the bios of cast / crew - even clips of them performing should they choose - for future casting opptys.
🔸Theatre can still feature sponsors of their org and also include static NON-tracking links to their advertisers.

🧡 Users WIN | Theatres WIN | Environment WIN
