Before You Start
Before creating your Image Gallery QR code, make sure:
- Your images are final
- Images are high quality but not too large in file size
- Images look good on a mobile screen

Very large image files may load slowly for users, especially on mobile networks. Compress images before uploading to keep the gallery snappy.

From the QR types list:

- Wait for the upload to complete
❌ "Images not uploading"
Check file size, internet connection, and format (JPG/PNG).
❌ "Gallery opens slowly"
Images are too large. Compress before upload.
