About QR Code Generator

Paste a URL or text, get a QR code. Adjust size, error correction level, and foreground/background colours. Download as PNG. Error correction level determines how much of the code can be damaged or obscured before it stops scanning: L (7%), M (15%), Q (25%), H (30%). Use H for printed materials that will see wear; L for screen use where you want maximum data density. All generation runs in the browser. Nothing is sent to a server.

Common Use Cases

  • Adding a QR code to a business card or printed flyer
  • Sharing Wi-Fi credentials without typing the password
  • Linking physical products to documentation or support pages
  • Creating a QR code for an event check-in URL

Frequently Asked Questions

What can a QR code contain?+
Any text up to roughly 3,000 characters depending on error correction level and data type. Common uses: URLs, plain text, Wi-Fi credentials (formatted as WIFI:T:WPA;S:networkname;P:password;;), vCard contact data.
Which error correction level should I use?+
M (15%) is a reasonable default. Use H (30%) for codes on packaging or surfaces that may get scratched or dirty. Use L (7%) when you have a lot of data and need maximum density.
How do I scan it?+
On iOS and Android, just open the camera app and point it at the code — no separate app needed on modern phones.
