QR Generator
Turn a link, WiFi password, or contact card into a scannable QR code in seconds.
What a QR Code Actually Does
A QR code is just a compact way to store a small piece of information - a URL, some text, WiFi credentials, or contact details - inside a pattern any phone camera can read instantly. Point a camera at it and whatever's inside opens up immediately, no typing required.
This generator lets you build one for several different data types, then adjust its size, color, and error tolerance before downloading it.
What You Can Adjust
Updates As You Type
The preview refreshes live, so you can see the final code before you've even finished entering your data.
Size and Color Control
Resize between 180px and 420px, pick an error correction level, and change the foreground color to fit your branding.
PNG or JPG Export
Save as a transparent PNG for print work, or a compressed JPG for quick digital use.
Generated Locally
The code is built entirely in your browser - nothing about the data you enter is sent to a server.
Data Types It Handles
- ✓ Website URL - a direct link, ready to scan
- ✓ Plain Text - a note, instruction, or message
- ✓ WiFi Login - SSID, password, and encryption type
- ✓ vCard Contact - name, phone, and email in one scan
- ✓ Email Address - pre-filled recipient and subject
- ✓ Phone Number - opens the dialer on mobile
Building One in Four Steps
- Pick the data type: URL, Text, WiFi, vCard, Email, or Phone Number.
- Fill in the details: Whatever fields apply to your chosen type.
- Adjust the look: Change the size, color, and error correction level as needed.
- Download it: Save as PNG or JPG.
What Error Correction Level Actually Means
QR codes can still be read even if part of them is damaged or covered - how much damage they can tolerate depends on the level you choose:
- Low (L) - 7%: Fine for a clean digital screen where the code stays intact.
- Medium (M) - 15%: A reasonable default for most situations.
- Quartile (Q) - 25%: Better if you're planning to place a small logo in the middle.
- High (H) - 30%: Best for printed codes that might get scuffed, like on packaging or outdoor signage.
Common Questions
Is it free?
Yes, completely - no account, no watermark, no restrictions.
Can I use the codes commercially?
Yes - codes generated here are royalty-free and fine to use on menus, packaging, marketing materials, or anywhere else.
Do these codes expire?
No - the data is embedded directly in the code itself rather than pulled from a server, so it works indefinitely.
What formats can I download?
PNG (good for transparent backgrounds) or JPG (smaller file size) - both at high enough resolution for printing.
