Free QR Code Generator

Turn any link or text into a scannable QR code. Generated locally in your browser — the content is never sent to a server.

How to scan a QR code

On most modern phones, just open the Camera app and point it at the code — a link or preview appears on screen; tap it to open. On older phones, open your QR scanner app or the scanner built into your browser or payment app. No special app is needed on recent iPhones and Android phones.

What can a QR code contain?

Website links, plain text, Wi-Fi details, contact cards, payment addresses, and more. This generator encodes any text you type — for a website, paste the full address (starting with https://) so phones open it directly.

Do QR codes expire?

No. A QR code is simply your text drawn as a pattern; it works forever as long as the link or content it points to stays valid.

Is my content uploaded?

No. The code is drawn locally in your browser.
