QR Code Generator

QR Code Generator turns any URL or text into a scannable QR code. Adjust the size, error-correction level and colors, then download a crisp PNG ready for print or screen.

Codes are generated entirely in your browser — your link or text is never uploaded to a server, and there is no tracking redirect baked into the code.

What is a QR code?

A QR (Quick Response) code is a two-dimensional barcode that stores data in a grid of black and white squares. A phone camera or scanner reads it instantly, most often to open a website, but QR codes can also hold plain text, contact cards, Wi-Fi credentials and more.

Because they are fast to scan and work from screens or paper, QR codes appear on posters, packaging, menus, business cards and event tickets.

Choosing an error-correction level

QR codes include error correction so they still scan when partly dirty, damaged or covered by a logo. Higher levels add redundancy at the cost of a denser code: Low (~7%), Medium (~15%), Quartile (~25%) and High (~30%) describe how much of the code can be lost and still recovered.

Medium is a good default. Choose High if the code will be printed small, displayed in harsh conditions, or overlaid with a logo; choose Low only when you need the simplest possible pattern for a short value.

Frequently asked questions

Do these QR codes expire?
No. The code encodes your content directly, so it works forever and does not depend on this site or any redirect service.
Is my URL or text uploaded?
No. The QR code is rendered locally in your browser, so your content stays on your device.
What size should I use for printing?
Generate at a larger size (for example 512px or more) for print so the code stays sharp, and leave a clear margin around it for reliable scanning.
