About the QR Code Generator
This QR code generator turns any text or URL into a scannable QR code instantly. Type a link, a phone number, a Wi-Fi note, or a short message, and the matching code appears as you go. When it looks right, download it as a PNG and use it on a poster, a business card, a product label, or anywhere a quick scan is handy.
You can choose the output size so the code fits the space you have, from a small 128 pixel badge up to a crisp 512 pixel image suited for print. You also pick an error correction level. Higher levels add redundancy so the code still reads after smudges, creases, or a small logo placed on top, at the cost of a slightly busier pattern.
Longer input produces a denser code with more modules. If a code looks cramped, shorten the text or raise the size, and prefer a higher error correction level when the code will be printed small or used on surfaces that may get scuffed. Always test the final image with a real phone camera before sending it to print.
Everything here runs in your browser. The QR code is drawn locally on your own device, and nothing you type is uploaded, logged, or sent to any server. Your links and messages never leave your machine, which makes this safe for private URLs and internal data.

Frequently asked questions
What can I put inside a QR code?
Any plain text works, including web URLs, email addresses, phone numbers, and short notes. Most phone cameras open URLs directly, while other text is shown for the user to read or copy.
Is my text or URL uploaded anywhere?
No. The QR code is generated entirely in your browser using local JavaScript. Nothing you type is sent to a server, stored, or logged, so private links stay private.
Which error correction level should I choose?
Level L is the smallest and least robust, while H tolerates the most damage. Use L or M for clean digital use, and Q or H when the code is printed small or may get scratched or partly covered.
Why does my QR code look more crowded as I type more?
A QR code stores data in a grid of modules, so longer input needs more modules and a denser pattern. To keep it readable, shorten the text, increase the size, or use a link shortener for long URLs.
How do I download and use the QR code?
Use the Download PNG button to save the image to your device. You can then place it in a document, on a slide, or in a design tool. Always scan the final version with a phone before printing.
