QR Code Generator
Turn any URL or text into a scannable QR code and download it as PNG — all in your browser, nothing uploaded. Free, no sign-up.
Printing tips
QR codes carry built-in error correction, so they survive a bit of wear — but they still need a clear white margin (the "quiet zone") and enough contrast. Keep the code square (never stretch it), print it at a size a phone can frame from a normal distance, and always scan-test the final artwork before it goes out.
Frequently asked questions
What can I put in a QR code?
Anything that fits as text — most commonly a URL, but also plain text, a phone number, or contact details. This tool encodes it as a standard QR code you can download and print.
How do I use it?
Type or paste your text or link, watch the QR code render live, then download it as a PNG. Point any phone camera at it to test.
Will the QR code actually scan?
Yes — it is built to the QR specification with Reed-Solomon error correction (level M), so it scans reliably even with minor print smudges. Keep the white border around it and do not stretch it.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. The QR code is generated entirely in your browser, so whatever you encode never leaves your device.
