QR code generator

Create a QR code in seconds: pick what it should contain, fill in the fields and style it with your own colors, module shape and logo. Download a sharp PNG or a scalable SVG for print, or copy it straight into a document. Make a QR code for a link, text, Wi-Fi network, contact card, email, phone number, SMS or map location. Choose colors, quiet zone, size, square, rounded or dot modules and an optional center logo, then download PNG or SVG or copy it. Everything runs in your browser; settings and content are saved on this device only.

How it works

  1. Choose the content type, for example a website, Wi-Fi network or contact card, and fill in the fields.
  2. Set the colors, quiet zone, size and module shape, and add a logo if you like; the contrast check warns about codes that are hard to scan.
  3. Download the code as PNG or SVG, or copy the image or the encoded text.

Every common QR content type

Website links get https added when you leave it out. Wi-Fi codes use the WIFI: format that phone cameras offer to join directly, with the network name and password escaped correctly. Contact codes are vCard 3.0 cards with name, company, phone, email, website and address. Email, phone, SMS and location codes use the mailto, tel, SMSTO and geo formats that phones open in the right app.

A real encoder with full error correction

The code is built to the QR standard: byte mode with UTF-8 so any language and emoji work, versions 1 to 40 chosen automatically, Reed-Solomon error correction at level L, M, Q or H, and the mask with the lowest penalty. The info line shows the version, module count and byte length. Adding a logo switches to level H, so up to about 30% of the code can be covered and it still scans. Test the printed code with a few phones before you use it widely.

Frequently asked questions

Is this QR code generator free?

Yes. It is free with no sign-up, no watermark and no limit. The codes are static, so they never expire and keep working as long as the content (for example the website) exists.

Do my codes or data leave my device?

No. The code is calculated in your browser. Content, settings and the logo are saved only in this browser's localStorage and in the JSON file you export.

PNG or SVG: which should I download?

SVG is a vector file that stays sharp at any size, which is best for print and design programs. PNG is a pixel image that works everywhere, such as documents, slides and websites. Choose a size of at least 512 px for PNG.
