Logging in should be simple, but too often, it is not. You forget your password, reset it, wait for an email, and before you know it, you have wasted time just trying to get in. Nobody likes dealing with login issues, and we know how frustrating it can be. To make participant recruitment and enrollment easier, WeGuide’s new feature, QR Code Login, eliminates the need for passwords and verification codes by allowing participants to log in instantly with a quick scan of a unique QR code.
Clinicians and researchers can now recruit participants seamlessly at events or in clinics. From the WeGuide admin portal, they can create a participant profile, enroll them in a program, and generate a secure QR code in seconds. The participant then opens the WeGuide app, taps "Login with QR," and scans the code—instantly logging in and engaging with the platform. The QR code automatically expires after thirty minutes, after use, or when a new one is created, ensuring security at every step. If the camera is not working, the app will guide users through fixing it. This feature is also available on Progressive Web Apps (PWAs), making login effortless across different devices.

How to use QR Code Login:
For Participants
- Open the WeGuide app or PWA
- Tap “Login with QR”
- Scan the provided QR code
- No need to enter a password or wait for an email. If camera permissions are off, the app will guide you through fixing them.
For Admins
- In the WeGuide admin portal, enable QR login via your implementation manager.
- Create a participant profile and enroll them in a program
- Generate and share the QR code for instant login
The code stays valid for thirty minutes or until used, and generating a new one cancels any previous versions automatically. This simplifies enrollment and reduces login-related support requests.
Why does it matter?
Recruiting participants should be fast and frictionless. Instead of dealing with forgotten passwords or lengthy onboarding steps, QR Code Login enables instant access. Researchers and clinicians can focus on engagement rather than troubleshooting login issues. With automatic code expiration and built-in security, this feature ensures a smooth experience for both admins and participants.
