In the creation flow of creating a Flowcode, you have the option to add Smart Rules to codes that have multiple scan destinations. These smart rules can be determined by device type, time of day, day of week or a combination of all three.
To add smart rules to your code, go to the drop down under I want my Flowcode to scan to, and input the number of scans destinations you need.
Once you enter your desired scan destination, select Apply smart rules.
This will prompt you to filter by device type, time of day, day of week or a combination of all three.
When to Use Smart Rules?
Smart rules are a great feature to utilize when there is a need to...
Route different device types to the correct app store.
Implement multiple use cases within a single code.
Aid in audience engagement by offering multiple promotional opportunities within a single code as determined by time or day of week.

Example 1: Route different device types to the correct app store
If you are marketing an app and want to use Flowcode to increase downloads, you would add a device-type Smart Rule. This allows you to redirect scanners based on the type of device (iOS or Android) they are using to scan your Flowcode. Then, you would input two different scan destinations: your app on the iOS App Store and your app on the Android App Store. When someone scans your code, they will be automatically redirected to the appropriate app store.
Example 2: Implement multiple use cases within a single code.
If you are a restaurant using Flowcode as your contactless menu solution, instead of having separate Flowcodes for your lunch and dinner menus, you could add a Smart Rule based on time of day. When customers scan the menu at lunchtime, they will be redirected to the lunch menu. After a certain hour (determined by you), customers will be automatically redirected to the dinner menu.
Example 3: Aid in audience engagement by offering multiple promotional opportunities within a single code as determined by time or day of week.
If you are a bar that offers different drink specials each day of the week, create a Flowcode with a day-of-week Smart Rule. Upload a unique menu or link for each day so that when customers scan your contactless menu, they are automatically redirected to that day's specials.
