## How to use it
1. In Google Maps on a computer, right-click the spot and click the coordinates to copy them. On iPhone, drop a pin in Apple Maps and swipe up to see them.
2. Paste latitude and longitude, and add a place name.
3. Download the code and print it on invitations, parking signs or trail markers.

## Coordinates vs a map link
A geo: code works offline, has no tracking, and opens whatever maps app the person uses. Its catch: some Android camera apps show the coordinates as text rather than opening a map. If you want to be sure, share a Google Maps or Apple Maps link in a URL code instead. Both are fine; pick what suits your audience.

## Good uses
- Wedding and event invitations: the exact venue entrance
- Parking or loading-dock instructions on delivery notes
- Trailheads and meeting points that have no street address
- Rental property welcome books

## FAQ
### How precise is it?
Coordinates are kept to six decimal places, which is about 10 cm. The phone's own GPS is the limiting factor.

### Does it work without internet?
The code itself does. Whether the map loads depends on the maps app having offline data.
