About This Tool
SurpriseQR lets you write a message (with an optional photo, video, or background music), lock it behind a countdown to any date and time up to 2 years out, and share it as a scannable QR code or link. The recipient sees a locked countdown until the exact moment you chose, then it opens with confetti. Add an optional password, or make it a one-time surprise that disappears after it is opened. Pick a theme, Birthday, Love, Congratulations, Special Message, Mystery Gift, Funny, or Secret Mission, to match the occasion.
