QR Code Generator
A restaurant menu, a WiFi password, a business card, or a link to a product page — a QR code lets someone go from a physical object straight to digital content just by pointing a phone camera at it. This tool generates a scannable QR code from any text or URL you enter.
What can go into a QR code
Any text content works — a website URL (the most common use), a plain message, contact details formatted as text, or a WiFi network name and password in the right format. The QR code simply encodes whatever text you type; what a scanning app does with that text (open a browser, add a contact, connect to WiFi) depends on the format of the text itself and the scanning app's own recognition, not on this tool.
Where QR codes get used
Printing a QR code on a flyer, poster, or business card that links directly to a website, menu, or contact form. Sharing a WiFi network's credentials with guests by generating a QR code they can scan to connect automatically, instead of typing a password. Linking a printed product package or instruction manual to an online video demo or support page. Adding a quick-scan code to an event ticket or badge that links to registration details or a schedule.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a limit to how much text a QR code can hold? Yes — QR codes have a maximum data capacity (roughly a few thousand characters depending on content type and error-correction level), so very long text may fail to generate; for long content, link to a webpage instead of embedding the full text directly.
Will the QR code still scan if it gets slightly damaged or dirty when printed? QR codes include built-in error correction, meaning a portion of the code can be obscured, smudged, or damaged and still scan correctly — this tool uses a medium error-correction level, a reasonable balance for most printed uses.
Is my content uploaded to a server to generate the code? No — the QR code is generated entirely in your browser using a client-side JavaScript library; the text you enter is never transmitted anywhere.
