How this QR code generator works
Enter your information
Choose a content type and fill in the details — a link, WiFi credentials, contact info, or plain text.
The QR code is generated instantly
Your browser encodes the data into a QR pattern in real time as you type, entirely on your device.
Download it as PNG or SVG
Save a high-resolution image, then print it or share it anywhere — no watermark, no branding.
What can you use a QR code for?
A few common, practical uses for a generated QR code.
Website
Link directly to a homepage, landing page, or portfolio from a printed flyer, poster, or storefront sign.
Restaurant menu
Print a code on table tents so guests can pull up a digital menu instantly on their own phone.
Business card
Encode a phone number or email so a new contact can reach you with a single scan, no typing required.
WiFi sharing
Let guests join your network by scanning a code instead of reading out a long password.
Product packaging
Point to care instructions, warranty registration, or a product page directly from the box.
Event invitation
Include a code on an invite that links to an RSVP form, event page, or calendar entry.
Frequently asked questions
How do QR codes work?
A QR code stores data as a grid of black and white squares called modules. A camera or scanner app reads the pattern and decodes it back into the original text, link, or contact details, then hands it to your device to open or display.
Are QR codes permanent?
The image itself never changes once generated, since the data is encoded directly into the pattern. If the content it points to — such as a website — moves or is taken down, the code will still scan correctly but lead to that unavailable destination.
Can someone track QR codes?
A code generated here encodes your content directly with no tracking link or third-party redirect, so nothing built into it monitors scans. Tracking is only possible if the content itself, such as a URL, points to a service that logs visits.
Can I print QR codes?
Yes. Download the SVG format for printing, since it scales to any size without losing sharpness — useful for posters, packaging, or signage. The PNG download also works well for smaller printed materials like flyers or cards.
What image format should I download?
Choose SVG when the code will be resized, printed large, or placed into design software, since vector graphics stay crisp at any scale. Choose PNG for quick sharing, screens, or documents, where a standard raster image is expected.
Does this tool upload my data?
No. The entire QR code, including the text you enter and the image generated, is created locally in your browser with JavaScript. Nothing is sent to a server, logged, or stored, and it works the same even offline once the page has loaded.
Why did my QR code turn out very dense or hard to scan?
Longer content, such as a large block of text or a very long URL, needs more modules to encode, which makes the pattern denser and can affect scan reliability at small print sizes. Shortening the content or increasing the printed size usually resolves this.
What does the error correction level do?
Error correction lets a QR code still scan correctly even if part of it is damaged, dirty, or partly covered, for example by a logo. Higher levels tolerate more damage but produce a denser code, so Medium or Quartile is a reasonable default for most uses.
