Comment (by eighthave):
One thing to keep in mind when encoding things as URIs for QR codes is the
special QR code char set that makes for smaller QR Codes for the same URI.
The URI needs to only use uppercase letters, numbers, and a few special
chars. The char set is
`0–9 A–Z space $ % * + - . / :`
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_code#Storage
For Android, that means that the app also has to claim `<data
android:scheme="BRIDGE" />` so that the URI will be properly directed when
scanned from any QR scanner.
