Bots can create false requests, while repeat scans inflate totals. Shared IP addresses may make several viewers look like one user, and VPNs can distort location reporting. Device settings may also block or limit analytics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>IP-based location usually indicates an approximate city or region, not a precise address.

Reduce glare, increase TV brightness, hold the phone steady, or move closer. The code should remain visible for 5-10 seconds with a clear quiet zone.

Dynamic destinations can be changed or disabled, and promotions may be time-limited. Pairing codes and one-time sign-in tokens often expire within minutes for security.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>Can one QR code support multiple TV campaigns?\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>Yes. A dynamic QR code can keep the same broadcast image while its redirect points to a new landing page. Reuse it for sequential campaigns when reporting stays separate.
