Each item in the QRing app is automatically linked to the number of the device on which the app is located. In addition to yourself, you can also add other contacts, such as family members, friends and colleagues.
QRing is available in 6 different languages: Italian, German, Spanish, French, English and Dutch. The language of the app is the same as the language of your mobile phone. The same goes for the finder. The landing page that the finder lands on is in the language of the device with which the tag was scanned.
The stickers without NFC chip are suitable for phones. When you stick a sticker with NFC on your phone, your phone will continue to scan the chip and think that something is nearby. The stickers without NFC are expected to be available in week 40.
The metal strap works like a screw. See this instruction video for more details.
At the moment it is not yet possible to delete messages and/or calls. We are working on this and expect to release it in the next update.
After scanning a QRing tag, the finder is asked to share GPS location when he/she has scanned the QR code or NFC chip. The finder can indicate whether his/her location is shared with the owner.
The most diverse items from suitcases to smartphones. Even your cat, dog or child can wear a QRing QR-tag.
The stickers are all waterproof. For round and uneven surfaces or for intensive outdoor use, we recommend the normal QRing stickers (without NFC).
The stickers will last at least 6 years.
In the unlikely event that your sticker or tag is damaged, you can either generate and print a new QR code yourself or order a new one in the shop.
Our experience is that you are up to 9 times more likely to get your item back with QRing. We are of course working hard to get this even higher. We only stop at 100%!
Your data and information are safe with QRing. We do not share information with third parties.
By scanning the QR code of the lost item with your smartphone, you can directly call or text the owner and make an appointment to return the lost item. Thank you for your honesty!
When you have scanned a QRing QR code you will be asked if you want to share your location. This will let the owner know where their item was found.
Download the app from the App Store or Google Play and follow the instructions. Follow the in-app instructions and you are ready to go. Welcome to the QRing community!
Once you have downloaded the app and followed the in-app instructions in the app, you are ready to go. Add your items and activate them with a QRing sticker or tag or by creating one yourself in the app. Stick or attach the QR code to your item and you are in control of any potential loss.
If you lose your item and the finder scans it, you will be called anonymously. The incoming phone call will be displayed as the name of you item (i.e. “car keys”). That way you always know your item has been found. You then make an appointment with the honest finder to get your item back!
Privacy is one of the important cornerstones of the QRing concept. We do not share your personal information. You will be called via an encrypted connection. Only when you have answered or responded to a message, your number or e-mail will be shared with the finder.
QRing regularly conducts hack tests to protect our data. In addition, we use the highest certified data centers.
