QR Code Generator

A QR Code Generator turns a link or piece of text into a scannable square code that any phone camera can read in seconds. Businesses put QR codes on menus, posters, packaging, and shop windows, while teachers, event organisers, and families use them to share Wi-Fi details, contact pages, payment links, and websites without typing long addresses by hand.

This free generator creates your code locally in your browser. The text you enter is not uploaded to a server, not stored, and not tracked, so you can safely create codes for private links too. Once generated, you download a clean PNG image that you can print, add to a design, send in a message, or place on your own website.

How to use

  1. Type or paste the web address or text you want the code to contain.
  2. Choose a size. Use a larger size for printing and a smaller size for screens.
  3. Click the Generate QR Code button and check that the code appears clearly.
  4. Test it once with your own phone camera before you share or print it.
  5. Click Download PNG to save the image to your device.
  6. Print it, share it, or add it to your poster, menu, or document.

Frequently asked questions

What can I put inside a QR code?

Most people use a website link, but you can also encode plain text, a phone number, an email address, or Wi-Fi details written in the correct format. Scanning apps decide what to do with the content, so a link beginning with https works best for web pages and opens reliably on almost every modern phone.

Which size should I choose?

For use on a screen or in a document, two hundred and fifty six or five hundred and twelve pixels is usually enough. For posters, banners, and printing, choose the largest size so the code stays sharp when enlarged. A blurry or tiny printed code is harder to scan, especially in low light.

Do QR codes expire?

No. A code made from your text or link does not expire, because the information is stored inside the pattern itself. It will keep working as long as the destination link stays live. If the page you linked to is removed or moved, the code will still scan but the page will not open.

Is my information private?

Yes. Your code is generated locally in your browser. Nothing is uploaded or saved by this tool.
