**Step 3: Scan with your phone to check**

2. If the QR Art doesn't scan, try to create again with different params `--qrw` `--steps` \`--seed\` check Parameters list for more details.

Sometime it takes more than few tries until you get it right. AI can't do the balancing, it's our job as the artists/creators to create these QR Art.

#### Prompting Tip!

The Quick QR Art Bot works best with simple, short sentences that describe what you want to see. Avoid long lists of requests.

### **5:** Accept the Terms Of Service <a href="#id-6-accept-the-terms-of-service" id="id-6-accept-the-terms-of-service"></a>

The Quick QR Art Bot will generate a pop-up asking you to accept the Terms of Service. You must agree to the Terms of Service before any image will be generated.<br>

### **6:** Processes the Job <a href="#id-7-processes-the-job" id="id-7-processes-the-job"></a>

#### The Quick QR Art Bot takes about 20s to generate one QR Art. <a href="#the-midjourney-bot-takes-about-a-minute-to-generate-four-options" id="the-midjourney-bot-takes-about-a-minute-to-generate-four-options"></a>

Quick QR Art uses powerful Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) to interpret and process each prompt. Therefore we will apply some measurements and priority queue generation for Pro users. Details in [Subscription plans](https://docs.quickqr.art/subscriptions/subscription-plans).

### **7:** Save Your QR Art <a href="#id-10-save-your-image" id="id-10-save-your-image"></a>

Click on the image to open it to full size, and then right-click and choose `Save image`. On mobile, long-tap the image and then tap the download icon in the top right corner.
