1QR's journey began in 2013 when its founders acquired the 1QR.com domain, fueled by discussions about how QR code technology could revolutionize marketing and professional networking. Having been active in these fields since 2009, the co-founders were early advocates for the potential of QR codes. However, in the early 2010s, the technology was still in its nascent stages, with limited adoption and functionality. It wasn't until the Covid-19 pandemic that QR code technology gained mainstream traction, as the world sought contactless solutions. This pivotal shift accelerated the need for a versatile, user-friendly QR platform, paving the way for the development of 1QR as a comprehensive dynamic QR code solution.

In 2020, strategic planning for 1QR’s platform across Android, iOS, and web applications commenced, and by early 2023, development efforts were in full swing. The first version, 1QR 1.0, launched in December 2023, marking a major milestone with its user-friendly design and dynamic capabilities. Since its release, 1QR has rapidly evolved, introducing dozens of features and enhancements, along with a significant 2.0 version update. Looking forward, 1QR remains committed to continuously enhancing the platform while staying true to its core principles of simplicity and usability, providing a powerful yet accessible tool for marketing and networking.
